2008 Preakness
Stakes Odds: Big Brown at 3/10 odds to win
While
the contenders list continue to shrink, the 2008 Preakness
Stakes odds remain pretty much the same. Even though betting on
the Preakness Stakes 2008 is not expected to reach unheard
proportions, it is still part of the Triple Crown and will
attract millions of punters from around the world. At the online
sportsbook
BodogSports, the 2008
Preakness Stakes odds naturally favor the Derby winner Big
Brown, holding betting odds on the Preakness at 3/10. This means
the bettors would have to wager $100 just to win $30, odds which
could reduce the interest in the Preakness Stakes betting this
year. With major contenders withdrawing from the Saturday's race
(see links at the bottom), Big Brown remains too big of a
favorite and his odds will likely continue to get shorter and
shorter as post time approaches.
Following Big Brown, second on the 2008
Preakness Stakes odds sheet comes Behindatthebar, who is sitting
on odds 12/1 to win the Saturday's race at Pimlico.
Behindatthebar is trained by well-known Todd Pletcher, but not
much of a chance is given to him by the experts, comes the race
against Big Brown. Still, if the Derby winner fails to deliver
at the Preakness, the payouts for the bettors could be enormous
- keep in mind that similar mistake was made by the odds makers
during this year's Super Bowl. Hey Byrn is third in line to win
the 2008 Preakness Stakes, according to the odds posted at
BodogSports, with 20/1 payout
on a victory. Macho Again is also holding odds 20/1, while
Kentucky Bear and Yankee Bravo are with odds 25/1 to win the
2008 Preakness. Every horse after is paying on underdog odds
50/1. Here is the full list of the 2008 Preakness Stakes odds:
Behindatthebar - 12/1
Big Brown - 3/10
Giant Moon - 25/1
