Bet on Preakness Stakes odds are always popular on the Kentucky Derby winning horse. The 2009 Kentucky Derby winner was Mine That Bird and although he will get attention in Preakness odds, he is not a horse that will be that popular or that is likely to win the Triple Crown.
Bet on Preakness odds almost always favor the Kentucky Derby winning horse. That might not be the case in 2009 bet on Preakness Stakes lines. Mine That Bird was the second biggest longshot to ever win the Kentucky Derby, just surpassing the 2005 winner Giacomo. If we look back at 2005 Preakness odds we can get a good idea of what should happen as we bet on Preakness Stakes odds this year. Back in 2005 it was not Giacomo who was the favorite in bet on Preakness Stakes odds. That honor went to Afleet Alex who ultimately won for gamblers who bet on Preakness Stakes action. Giacomo was the fourth betting choice in bet on Preakness odds and ended up finishing third in the race. That same type of bet on Preakness Stakes result could be in store for Mine That Bird.
It is unlikely a 50-1 longshot that gets lucky and wins will be the favorite in his next race, even if he is trying to stay alive for the Triple Crown. Mine That Bird was so unknown that even the trainer gave his horse little chance of winning. There will be some people who bet on Preakness odds this year and take Mine That Bird but the Preakness does not set up well for the horse. Gamblers that bet on Preakness horses know that the race is a speed race, not a closer’s race. In the Kentucky Derby, Mine That Bird got a dream trip along the rail and pulled away in the slop. That type of trip is unlikely to be repeated in a speed favoring race like the Preakness.
The likely favorite in bet on Preakness Stakes odds is Kentucky Derby runner-up Pioneerof the Nile. It is also possible that other horses from the Derby will get attention in Preakness odds. Those are third and fourth place finishers Musket Man and Papa Clem. Others who might be in the bet on Preakness race include Kentucky Derby betting favorite Friesan Fire, Join in the Dance and General Quarters.
