India, May 17 -- Napoleon Solo stormed to victory in the 151st edition of the Preakness Stakes at Laurel Park. The colt, trained by Chad Summers and ridden by jockey Paco Lopez, not only captured one of horse racing's biggest prizes but also secured a massive payday from the race's $2 million purse.

The winner of the Preakness Stakes earns $1.2 million from the overall purse.

The remaining payout structure is divided among the next four finishers:

1st place - $1.2 million

2nd place - $400,000

3rd place - $220,000

4th place - $120,000

5th place - $60,000

The total purse for the race has remained at $2 million since 2024.

Traditionally, the winning purse is divided between the horse's owner, trainer and jockey.
