2009 Preakness Stakes PredictionsPreakness PredictionsPreakness Stakes predictions are much easier to predict compared to the Kentcuky Derby and Belmont Stakes. The Preakness Stakes is the second leg out of three for the Triple Crown title. It takes place 2 weeks after the Derby. The 2009 Preakness Stakes takes place on Saturday, May 16th 2009. Like any major horse race, you must do some statistic research on every Preakness Stakes hopeful. Anticipating promising bets from such information is known as "horse handicapping", a worthwhile procedure which presents you with factual information as to which horses are the most likely to win. Horse capper Arthur Bodley predicts Friesan Fire to win the 134th Preakness Stakes. He also predicted him to win the Derby and as we know turned out to be quite dismal, an 18th place finish. Prior to the Derby, Friesan Fire had not raced in seven weeks, which might have been his demise. He is currently posting great odds to win the Preakness at +650 at sportsbook giant, Sportsbook.com. Friesan Fire will be competing against the filly favorite, Rachel Alexandra, but his trainer Larry Jones knows all about a filly, since he trained Eight Belles last year when she finished second at the Derby.

The Preakness Stakes is much shorter track than both the Derby and the Belmont Stakes, so the chances for a victory are high. That might not be the case this year, since a 50/1 odds horse won the Derby! Always keep your eyes open for the underdogs, or the dark horses that have excellent chances but which, for some reason or another stay out of the spot-light. Also, stay away from amateur Derby trainers and jockeys. You should choose a horse that belongs to a professional jockey. Choose horses that have consistently and continually been racing for quite some time or who has a total of six races to its credit. The horse that you choose should be fit and fine and should have run at least as far as one mile and an eighth in a prep race. As a measurement to find the horses true potential, its breed and ancestry is studied and its in-bred potential for running a mile and a quarter distance of the Derby is deduced. 2009 Preakness Stakes Betting Odds sponsored by Sportsbook.com - May 16th, 2009
