Preakness 2016: Odds, probable horses, contenders for Nyquist image

Nyquist will enter the 2016 Preakness as the odds-on favorite, but is still an underdog to capture the Triple Crown

Sportsbook.ag lists the Kentucky Derby winner at odds of -180, meaning a bettor would have to lay $18 to win $10. He'll be challenged in the Preakness by Derby runner-up Exaggerator, who was a bad early trip from upending the unbeaten Nyquist at Churchill Downs last Saturday, and several other returning horses.
