American Pharoah Preakness Stakes Odds – To Win Triple Crown: The Victor Espinoza Edge
In addition to odds on American Pharoah to win the 2015 Preakness Stakes, most online sportsbooks were also still offering odds on the Kentucky Derby winner taking the Triple Crown.
The Yes pays $24.50 for every $10 bet.
The X Factor here may very well be jockey Victor Espinoza.
He’s won the Kentucky Derby three times (including the past two years) and has also won the Preakness Stakes on two occasions.
Just like with trainer Bob Baffert, Espinoza is a perfect 3-0 following up his Kentucky Derby wins with Preakness victories.
"Every moment I can have, every race I can win, I have to take advantage," Espinoza said. "I might not have another horse like him. It took me 12 years to win the Derby again. I might never get back here at all."
