Bet on Preakness Stakes odds with the normal win, place and show wagers but don’t forget about the exotics. Preakness Stakes odds will give you a lot of different choices, some of which are better than others. Let’s look at some of the options for wagering on the Preakness Stakes.
Bet on Preakness choices definitely begin with the win wager but that wager doesn’t always offer the most value. There are normally only 8-12 horses on the Preakness Stakes odds board so betting a horse to win might not be the best value. You might want to look instead at exacta, quinella, trifecta and superfecta choices as you bet on Preakness odds. Even including the race into Pick three’s or Pick Four’s is not a bad way to go.
Picking a winner as you bet on Preakness odds is oftentimes easier than in the Kentucky Derby. The favorite wins the Preakness Stakes more than half the time so that is the first place to look. Normally that horse will be the Kentucky Derby winner but not always. In 2005 the Kentucky Derby winning horse was Giacomo and he was the fourth choice by gamblers who bet on Preakness Stakes odds. The same thing is likely to happen in 2009 Preakness odds with Mine That Bird. He was a huge longshot winner in the Derby and is not likely to get that much respect from gamblers who bet on Preakness Stakes lines.
Let’s look specifically at the exacta, trifecta and superfecta wagers for bet on Preakness Stakes action. The huge payoff that these wagers returned in the Derby are not going to happen in Preakness Stakes odds because of the smaller field but they can still offer value. You might want to consider keying a horse in the exacta, trifecta or superfecta or you might want to lay out even more money and box horses together in one of those exotic wagers as you bet on Preakness odds.
It really doesn’t matter what you choose as you bet on Preakness Stakes odds. The goal is to win money and to have fun when you bet on Preakness Stakes action. A Triple Crown could still be in the offing so cheering for that horse or better yet, cheering for your own wagers is definitely exciting as you bet on Preakness Stakes lines this year.
