Preakness 2022: See updated Las Vegas futures odds
Epicenter was cut to a best price of a little more than even money as he continues to be the heavy favorite in Nevada futures betting for Saturday’s Preakness Stakes.
Circa Sports in Las Vegas shortened Epicenter to plus 105, meaning a $100 bet would result in a profit of $105 if the Kentucky Derby runner-up were to go one better this weekend at Pimlico. Caesars at William Hill Nevada, which has not budged from its Tuesday openers, held firm at even money. The Westgate Superbook drifted Epicenter to even money after he opened at an odds-on price of minus 110.
Kentucky Oaks (G1) winner Secret Oath and Wood Memorial (G2) runner-up Early Voting went over 5-1 to plus 520 at Circa. Simplification, who finished fourth in the Derby, drifted to a best price of 10-1 at the Westgate.
These were the odds Thursday night at the three Las Vegas racebooks. The Pimlico pari-mutuel morning line also is shown. The best fixed-odds prices for each horse are shown in boldface.
