![]() Assuming that Rachel Alexandra runs in the Preakness, what odds do you guys think she will go off at? We still don't know for sure who will be in there. Jones is now saying that Fresian Fire will run. Papa Clem and Musket Man are supposed to run. I don't know if POTN will run or not.
Rachel has been so impressive that she will obviously be the favorite. But I think some of those other horses will get play so I don't think RA will be odds-on. I'm guessing she goes off at around even-money. What do you guys think? |

![]() Depends on how big of a field it is. I say 3-2. There are enough doubts (or at least there should be) about her competition to keep her above even-money.

![]() A really good question...Numbers players will pound her...except for the sheets guys who will expect a bounce.
I say 2-1 or 3/2....and it will be a freaking gift unless she doesnt relax. That will be her eventual undoing, IMO. She hasnt been eye-ball to eye-ball in the lane in a long while. |

![]() If there are 14 (13 colts) in the race, RA will be 2-1 or so. The other question is what odds will MTB be? Think about how nuts it is for the Oaks winner to be 2-1 or less in the Preakness, while the Derby winner is 8-1 or more......

![]() I'll go with odds of 8/5 or less...............she won't get any of my money (on top at least). She just increases the value of the other runners in the race. Now, just have to find somebody else to settle on. !@#$%^&

![]() She will likely be around even money...maybe 6-5. It's not often one looks at a PP of grade 1 race and it shows 1st by 20 1/4. That will be hard to overlook.

![]() With Mine That Bird being 50-1 or so in the Derby, nothing will surprise me. But if I had a gun to my head... I'd say she's 5-2/3-1 and he's a tick or two higher. Handicappers won't bet MTB, but the public will.
