2017 Preakness Stakes Field and Odds. By Triple Crown Race Fan on May 19, 2017 in Uncategorized. Unlike the Kentucky Derby this year, there should be a dry track for the 142nd running of the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico in Baltimore this weekend. Cloudy and 69 degrees is.
And again unlike the Derby the Preakness field is much smaller featuring only ten horses. This year the field features 5 horses that ran the Kentucky Derby and 5 new horses including Cloud Computing and Conquest Mo Money.
Always Dreaming is the early favorite to keep his dream alive for a shot at the Triple Crown. The opening odds have him at 4/5 after winning the Kentucky Derby by 2 3/4 lengths. Jockey John Velazquez will start Always Dreaming from the #4 post position and their main rival Classic Empire will be running right next to him from the #5 spot.
