(CNN) -- It's a dilemma 1960s TV character Jan Brady knew well: "How do you stand out when you're the middle sister?" Indeed, her ranting against sophisticated elder sibling -- "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia" -- became one of the most memorable catchphrases in the long-running U.S. sitcom The Brady Bunch. But the middle sister needn't be overlooked. In fact, if the Preakness Stakes -- the second horse race in America's prestigious Triple Crown -- is anything to go by, sometimes the quiet ones have the greatest stories to tell. The Kentucky Derby may be the first and most famous of the trifecta -- won by mud-splattered jockey Joel Rosario atop thoroughbred Orb earlier this month.
