Kentucky Derby winner Always Dreaming odds remained practically unchanged following Wednesday’s post position draw. The price Wednesday evening was coming in at -130.
Always Dreaming will break from Gate 4 and Classic Empire, with the 2nd shortest odds to win the 2017 Preakness Stakes, will start from Gate 5.
Always Dreaming trainer Todd Pletcher said of the post position:
“Like I said before, I wasn’t overly concerned about where we drew. He was 4 in the Florida Derby, 5 in the Kentucky Derby. He’s generally a very alert horse away from the gate. He’s a good horse standing in the gate. I guess if you were hand selecting wherever you drew maybe you’d like to be outside of Conquest Mo Money. As we know, in a lot of races things change as soon as the gates open. We’ll just let him run his race.
“I don’t think [Classic Empire being in Post 5] matters, as long as everybody breaks cleanly. I would imagine that Classic Empire is going to keep an eye on where we are. The first and second choices are side by side.”
