Pre-Race Odds/Payouts:

The Preakness Stakes goes off this weekend at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland. This is the second jewel of the Triple Crown and 2012 marks the 137th running of this prestigious event. With only 11 horses set to run, this field looks more predictable than most of the Run for the Black-Eyed Susans in year’s past. I’ll Have Another won the Derby at 13/1 odds, and he is the second favorite at 5/2. Derby runner-up Bodemeister is the favorite at 8/5.

With a small field featuring great favorites, the potential of a big payout is unlikely. However, if a longshot does comes in, then your chances of  cashing in big on an Exacta or a Trifecta go way up. These are two of the most popular wagers in horse racing. With an Exacta, you have to correctly predict which two horses will finish first and second in the exact order. A successful Trifecta wager would mean that you correctly picked the top three horses in the exact order.

Just last year in the 2011 Preakness Stakes, a $2 Exacta paid $114.80 and a $2 Trifecta netted bettors $1,401.80. Shackleford, Animal Kingdom and Astrology finished in first, second and third, respectively. To keep it simple, I’m going to give you the payouts on every contender if they were to win at the current odds as of Thursday, May 17.

Bodemeister (8/5) – The runner-up at the Kentucky Derby holds a 5-2-3-0 career race record. A $2 wager would net you $5.20 and a $100 bet would bring back $260 if Animal Kingdom were to win.
