About

Journalism is a 3yo from the United States, trained by Michael W. McCarthy. Sired by Curlin and out of Mopotism, Journalism has won 6 races to date. On 18th May 2025 at Pimlico, it secured its most notable victory in the $2,000,000 Preakness Stakes (stakes), proving profitable for punters. Backing Journalism throughout its career would have yielded a 333% return on investment.
