Growing Triple Crown Online Bets Continue to Surprise Bookies

Horse racing has a large following in many parts of the globe and the reason for racing is the betting. The Triple Crown in America has punters looking closely at their forms after the Churchill Downs upset recently when a fifteen to one odds horse bolted to the finish and saw those who had bets on the nag take home a health sum of cash.

I'll Have Another surprised the bookies in Louisville Kentucky who have adjusted their odds to 3 to 1 on the same winner taking the second leg of the Crown at Pimlico Racecourse in Baltimore, Maryland. Bodemeister was the favourite, and now I'll Have Another will alongside 14 other starters have another shot at the winners circle. Many punters are hoping to see a Triple Crown winner emerge. Bodemeister and I’ll Have Another are both posted as favoured with many experts speculating that the surprise champ at the Kentucky Derby I'll Have Another has a difficult shot at taking the second leg Preakness Stakes crown.

Those in the know say that Bodemeister will gain an early lead in the shorter track at Pimlico leaving I’ll Have Another little opportunity to catch up. Champion rider Mike Smith on the back of the Bodemeister steed is expected to get out of the gate with a lot of speed and keep ahead with a punch. The horse is known for early speed and clean getaways.

Predictions are the strategy will work on the shorter track and I’ll Have Another will be robbed of the second leg win. Jockey Mario Gutierrez will try to entice every bit of talent he can from I'll Have Another because if he manages to win the Preakness Stakes then all that will lie between him and possible Triple Crown glory is the finish line and the trophy at the Belmont Stakes, this June 9th at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.
