Normally, the Preakness Stakes is the second leg of the Triple Crown and the event is always held on the third Saturday in May, preceded by the Kentucky Derby and followed by the Belmont Stakes.

HOW DO I BET ON THE PREAKNESS STAKES?

Betting on horse races is one of the easiest things to do all across the United States.

You'll notice when reviewing the Preakness odds, or odds for any other horse race, they're displayed a bit differently. Namely, horse racing is parimutuel, meaning that the odds adjust based on the amount of money wagered on a particular horse.

If a horse is heavily favored, it indicates that more people have put money on it.

From the race tracks themselves to off-track betting facilities and online horse betting sites. The actual number of horse race betting sites numbers in the hundreds.

However, we did our best to identify the biggest players in the industry.
