Nyquist was the odds-on favorite before a massive bet on new shooter Stradivari made him the favorite. Nyquist is now available at plus money with Kentucky Derby runner-up Exaggerator the second betting choice. Nyquist is unbeaten in eight career races and is looking to become the second Triple Crown winner in as many years.

We’ll be updating our live odds page all afternoon as bets roll in. Stradivari, who has run three times in his career and never in a stakes race, is now the favorite after a bettor placed $80,000 on him to win. Nyquist, who hasn’t lost in eight races, is the second betting choice at 5-to-2.

We like the favorites, and after betting action has made Nyquist plus money.
The Preakness infield party is a debacle
Remembering Pimlico’s toilet runs, which perfectly encapsulate the debauchery that is the Preakness infield.

Preakness weather
Rain started falling at 6 a.m. and the worst of it is supposed to continue into the early afternoon. Then, the rain should die down, but light showers are still expected. Baltimore is expected to get hit with between half an inch and 3/4 of an inch of rain, and temperatures should stay in the high 50s.
4:20 The Preakness track is a sloppy mess, which will have an interesting effect on the race.
2:45 The Preakness infield is cranking up with Fetty Wap performing.
1:45 Two horses died in early races at Pimlico after being injured on the track.
