BALTIMORE — Doug O’Neill could have been insulted. The Preakness odds had just been announced and the Kentucky Derby winner was second favorite behind a horse he ran down and defeated two weeks earlier.

Despite losing the Derby to hard-charging I’ll Have Another, Bodemeister was installed as the 8-5 favorite in Saturday’s second jewel of the Triple Crown.

I’ll Have Another was a 5-2 pick on the morning line.

A victory would give I’ll Have Another the chance to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978.
