The Preakness Stakes betting has turned strongly in the favour of exciting filly, Rachel Alexandra to win the second leg of the Triple Crown this coming weekend. The filly who won the Kentucky Oaks by more than 20 lengths is unbeaten in her last five starts but if she wins she will be the first filly to do so since 1924. Significantly jockey, Calvin Borel has elected to ride her rather than Kentucky Derby winner, Mine That Bird, thus denying himself the opportunity to claim the coveted Triple Crown. Mine That Bird is the only horse in the field that can claim that honour this season after his 50/1 upset 2 weeks ago. Currently Rachel Alexandra is the 111/10 favourite with Stan James while Mine That bird is third favourite at 11/2 with the same bookmaker.

Pioneer Of The Nile, trained by Bob Baffert is second favourite and the word is that his trainer is seriously excited about his horse's prospects for the race. He was second behind Mine That Bird in the Kentucky Derby but Baffert is confident that those places can be reversed. Prior to the Kentucky Derby, Pioneer had won his previous four starts.
11/10 Rachel Alexandra, 5/1 Pioneer Of The Nile, 11/2 Mine That Bird, 9/1 Friesan Fire, 10/1 Papa Clem, Musket Man, General Quarters, 20/1, Big Drama, Take The Points
