Bodemeister Preakness Stakes Odds Now Same as I’ll Have Another at 3 to 1

Both Bodemeister and I’ll Have Another had 3/1 odds of winning the 2012 Preakness Stakes heading into the post position draw.  Both horses enjoyed great value.  These prices were available at Sportsbook and subject to change so lock them in now here.

Trainer Bob Baffert declared Bodemeister “fit and ready” for Saturday’s Preakness.

He looks healthy. He looks happy," Baffert said in an interview with USA Today.  "I don't see anything to change my mind."

Baffert told the paper he will be looking for Bodemeister to break sharply from the starting gate as one of the keys to the outcome of the 1 3/16-mile Preakness.  Bodemeister fell out of first place just seconds before the finish at Churchill Downs over a week ago on what was a slightly longer track. 
"The break is so important," he said, adding, "He's just a really fast horse. You really can't change his style that much."

I’ll Have Another won this year’s Kentucky Derby and will be looking for his Triple Crown, the first in over 3 decades.
