Morning of the Preakness Stakes one could still bet Always Dreaming to win the Triple Crown at 3-1 odds for a payout potential of $30 for every $10 bet or $300 for every $100 bet.
Though American Pharoah grabbed the Triple Crown just two years ago, it took nearly 40 years for this to occur.
But back in the 1970s there were three Triple Crown winners, so some would argue these things happen in bursts or, in the case of the 70’s, threes. Still, only 12 horses have achieved this feat since 1919.
"There's more anxiety when you have the Derby winner and you're going for the Preakness and he's favorite, so that part is different but preparation-wise you're trying to do everything you can to have him the best you can on the day," said trainer Todd Pletcher.
