The Preakness Stakes 2012 odds for the upcoming race in Baltimore, Maryland have been released. Among the favorites in the field of contenders are Derby winner I'll Have Another, and runner-up Bodemeister.
The latest Preakness 2012 odds don't favor the Kentucky Derby winner to win this next race though. According to Sports Ticket Soup, it's currently Bodemeister who is the heavy favorite, with odds of 8 to 5. The horse was a favorite in the Derby several weekends ago, but saw I'll Have Another surge ahead during the final stretch to defeat him. The Derby winner is currently second favorite with odds of 5 to 2.
After those two Derby contenders, it's a tie for third favorite with both Went the Day Well and Creative Cause at 6 to 1 odds. Derby contender Daddy Nose Best has 12 to 1 odds, while four horses are at the bottom of the barrel with 30 to 1 odds. Should they win on Saturday, when the Preakness 2012 race is held, that would probably make some horse racing fans some handsome rewards.
However, many sports fans would love to see I'll Have Another have another victory at the Baltimore race track. With a win, it puts the thoroughbred in prime position to capture the Triple Crown, a seemingly elusive feat in horse racing since the late '70s. So sit back and get ready, as Saturday could bring some major excitement to the world of horse racing and sports in general!
