Alwaysmining Props
- To Win +700
- Top 2 +280
- Top 3 +150
He’s won 7 in a row. Although this is a step up in class, he’s won those 7 races so easily, it’s difficult to look past him to win at +700. The $130,000 Stay Thirsty sired runner should get an excellent trip near the pace. He can definitely get the distance. Stay Thirsty won the Travers at 1 ¼ miles. Alwaysmining might be a lock to finish third at above even money odds.
2019 Preakness Stake Prop Pick: Top 3 at +150
Owendale Props
- To Win +1100
- Top 2 +440
- Top 3 +240
The Lexington Stakes winner should be running fastest in the final ¼ mile of the race. He’s got the best turn of foot of any horse in the Preakness Stakes. Trainer Brad Cox has been on fire in 2019. Cox wins 30% with horses who won their last race like Owendale. That’s from 602 starters, making it a legitimate trend. Why bet on this guy to win, though, when he offers such great odds to finish in the Top 3? If you like him, go for that prop bet.

Anothertwistafate Props
- To Win +700
- Top 2 +280
- Top 3 +150
He doesn’t offer as much value to finish second or third as Alwaysmining. Even though the odds are the same, Anothertwistafate could be a feast or famine type runner. That means he either surprises and wins, or he ends up finishing out of the Top 3. If you believe he’s got a shot to win, don’t mess around with the Top 2 or Top 3 prop. Just bet him to win.
2019 Preakness Stake Prop Pick: To Win at +700
Signalman Props
- To Win +1400
- Top 2 +560
- Top 3 +310
He looks like a feast or famine type. Signalman isn’t, though. There’s a chance he gets an easy lead in the Preakness Stakes with Alwaysmining tracking him closely. If Signalman does get an easy lead, who’s to say he doesn’t take these gate-to-wire? The rest of this field doesn’t have his front-running ability. Not only that, he’s had four great works since finishing third behind Vekoma and Win Win Win in the Blue Grass Stakes. If he’s improved at all, he’s the front running play. All prop bet odds on Signalman are great. So, this is a your choice prop.

Win Win Win Props
- To Win +1200
- Top 2 +480
- Top 3 +260
He’ll close from the clouds just like Owendale. If he gets the right set up, he could win, but if you like him the conservative play is backing him to finish in the Top 3. He ran in the Derby and had no shot after the track came up wet. So, if the track is wet at Pimlico, consider laying off all together or simply backing him to finish third.
