With the Belmont Stakes coming up this weekend, all eyes will be focused on the Triple Crown dreams of horse racing's newest sweetheart, I'll Have Another. Only a win at the Belmont away from the first horse racing Triple Crown since Affirmed accomplished the feat in 1978, I'll Have Another will be running for history. However, the horse will also have to run against the odds.
Courtesy of OddsShark.com:
"The Triple Crown odds bet picking [I'll Have Another] to fall short is -160 at most racebooks, while the ‘yes' is a +150 underdog position Saturday," said Jack Randall of OddsShark.com. "It's so much racing in such a short period of time and this race is just so much longer than the other two."
Here are the complete odds:
Will I'll Have Another win the 2012 Triple Crown?
Yes +150
No -180
