While the connections of Kentucky Derby winner Always Dreaming saw their dream end in the 142nd Preakness Stakes, a Baltimore guy who grew just a few blocks from Pimlico Race Course, had one come true.
Seth Klarman, who said he became infatuated with horse racing as a kid, is one of the owners of Cloud Computing who outraced second-place finisher Classic Empire to the finish line in the Middle Jewel of the Triple Crown at Pimlico May 20.
"I started out as a teenager handicapping, enjoying the races, enjoying the athletic performances and enjoying the puzzle of trying to figure out who might win a race," Klarman said.
