The favorite to win the Preakness Stakes is Mystik Dan at 5-2 odds. Mystik Dan is looking for his second win en route to the 14th Triple Crown in horse racing history.

Can Mystik Dan Win the Preakness Stakes?
Yes, Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan can win the Preakness Stakes en route to the Triple Crown. Mystik Dan has the best Preakness Odds at 5-2, but the odds shouldn't matter given his victory at Churchill Downs Racetrack despite odds at 18-1.
