Originally scheduled for May, the race will happen this Saturday. There will be no fans in the stands to watch the horses and jockeys duke it out on the dirt of Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, but there is plenty of interest in this high-profile race. Who should you wager on? Check out our breakdown of two favorites, a sleeper, and a long shot below.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/signup\">Click here to make your 2020 Preakness picks<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/signup\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-164350 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds.jpg\" alt=\"Horse Racing Odds\" width=\"1024\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds-250x59.jpg 250w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds-600x141.jpg 600w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds-768x181.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Betting Preview for the Preakness Stakes Horse Race Running on October 3, 2020<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Where<\/strong><b>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pimlico Race Course, Baltimore, Maryland<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>When<\/strong><b>:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Saturday, October 3, 2020<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where to Watch<\/strong><b>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NBC<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Betting Odds<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">Odds to win the 2020 Preakness Stakes<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>FAVORITES<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Authentic (<a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">+120<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Indeed, according to the odds, Authentic, who\u2019s trained by Bob Baffert,\u00a0 has the best chance to win the 2020 Preakness Stakes &#8212; and his track record can speak for itself as to why this three-year-old colt is favored over all candidates. For one, Authentic has already won a Triple Crown race this year, topping the Kentucky Derby earlier in September. Furthermore, in six career races to date, Authentic has not won once, and that was a runner-up finish at the Grade 1 Santa Anita Derby back in June. Before winning at Churchill Downs, Authentic paced all horses at the Haskell Stakes (Grade 1) at Monmouth Park.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Art Collector (<a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">+200<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Art Collector didn\u2019t race at the Kentucky Derby, but Bruce Lunsford\u2019s three-year-old colt will be among the most anticipated horses when the gates open at Pimlico Race Course this coming Saturday. See, Art Collector has won all of his last six races, dating back to last year.\u00a0 Art Collector would have also attracted plenty of attention at the Kentucky Derby, but a foot problem caused it to skip the Triple Crown event. According to Art Collector\u2019s trainer, Tommy Drury, the colt is doing well and is where they want it to be at this point in their preparation for the Preakness Stakes. Art Collector has shown in seven of nine races with two wins at Graded Stakes events &#8212; the Blue Grass Stakes (Grade 2) and the Bourbon (Grade 3).<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Honor AP (<a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">+600<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Honor AP participated at the Kentucky Derby and fell just short of a show, finishing fourth overall. It\u2019s only the first time that Honor AP failed to finish inside the top three in a race. Prior to that, he went second at the Shared Belief Stakes. It\u2019s not too long ago when the John A. Shirreffs-trained colt won the Santa Anita Derby (Grade 1) where he blossomed into a serious contender for Triple Crown races.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>HIGH-VALUE SLEEPER<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>Storm The Court (<a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">+2500<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storm The Court has not won in six races this year, but he\u2019s looked brilliant in moments. Take for example when he finished runner up at the La Jolla Handicap (Grade 3) race last August and third at the Ohio Derby (Grade 3) back in June. Storm The Court is still trying to recover his form when he won the Breeders\u2019 Cup Juvenile (Grade 1) in November 2019. Needless to say, that\u2019s the performance many Storm The Court backers are hoping he could pull off at Pimlico Race Course this coming Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>No Parole (<a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">+3300<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No Parole saw his value dip after finishing just ninth at the H. Allen Jerkens Memorial (Grade 1) last August. That could mean his +3300 odds to win the Preakness Stakes might bring some value, considering that he has won five of seven career races. That includes his victory at the Woody Stephen (Grade 1) last June. No Parole is trained by Thomas A. Moss, whose horses have recorded 83 wins in 384 races this year.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>LONG SHOT<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>South Bend (<a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/horses\/preakness-stakes-odds\">+5000<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After finishing just 15th at the 2020 Kentucky Derby, it\u2019s easy to see why South Bend isn\u2019t considered a horse to watch out for at the upcoming Triple Crown race down in Baltimore. South Bend has not won a race since topping the Street Sense last year, which means he\u2019s gone 10 races in a row without topping anything. The closest he\u2019s gotten to a victory over that 10-race stretch was when he finished second at Cutler Bay last March and also second at Ohio Derby (Grade 3) back in June.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><strong>Writer\u2019s Prediction<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authentic wins the 2020 Preakness Stakes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/signup\">Click here to make your 2020 Preakness picks<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/signup\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-164350 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds.jpg\" alt=\"Horse Racing Odds\" width=\"1024\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds-250x59.jpg 250w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds-600x141.jpg 600w, http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Virtual-Horse-Racing-Odds-768x181.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"165913\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;2,780&nbsp;total views, &nbsp;1&nbsp;views today<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s pretty crazy that we&#8217;re talking about the Preakness Stakes in October, but 2020 is a crazy year.
