  • May 18, 2019 Pimlico Race Course
    May 18, 2019 Pimlico Race Course 866.88XPRESS (866.889.7737) Welcome to Xpressbet’s FREE Preakness Wager Guide! Fellow Racing Fan, Congratulations to the connections of 2019 Kentucky Derby winner Country House! That certainly was one wild-and-woolly Kentucky Derby, culminating with the fi rst on-track win disqualifi cation in the race’s storied 145-year history. Because of the Kentucky Derby’s wide-open nature, Preakness fi gures to be a similarly challenging handicapping puzzle. None of the top 3 o cial Derby fi nishers will contest the Preakness, so that leaves Improbable and War of Will as post-Louisville headliners. Set to join Derby runners in Baltimore are capable new faces that have been pointed toward Old Hilltop: Alwaysmining, Anothertwistafate, Sueno, Owendale, Bourbon War and more. Have no fear. Xpressbet’s FREE Preakness Wager Guide will navigate you through these uncharted waters. We’ve recruited top handicappers, writers and broadcasters to examine the race—Analysis, Main Contenders, Value Plays and $100 Wagering Strategies. In addition to race-by-race expert commentary, inside you’ll also fi nd oodles of useful Stats & Trends, a handy Exotic Wagering Chart and much more. This season, following the Preakness post-position draw, Xpressbet again will produce an updated version of this guide to refl ect adjustments in expert opinions based on up-to-the-minute information. Make certain to return to the Xpressbet website Friday, May 18 for a FREE revised and enhanced version of the guide, including Eddie Olczyk’s valuable opinions. When you are ready to wager, anytime from anywhere, Xpressbet can help.
