SAN JOSE, Costa Rica, May 8, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Will the Kentucky Derby-winning 'I'll Have Another' win another, and then another? That's the question VRB Marketing asked one if its partner sites, and the answer has the potential to be quite lucrative. Partner site SportsBettingOnline has released its odds for 'I'll Have Another' winning the Triple Crown at +1500.
"The most exciting two minutes in sports now has a new champion," stated Kevin Harper, sports analyst at VRB Marketing. "I'll Have Another' turned it on in the final stretch and overtook Bodemeister to win the Derby and set up a chance to be the first winner of the Triple Crown since Affirmed did it in 1978. The 3-year-old Chestnut Colt was a pretty big 15-1 underdog at post but we don't expect to see the same value on this horse in two weeks at Pimlico."
The Triple Crown is composed of the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Belmont Stakes. The last horse to win the Triple Crown was 'Affirmed', who won all three races in 1978.
According to VRB Marketing, SportsBettingOnline has the 'Yes' odds for 'I'll Have Another' winning the Triple Crown listed at +1500. That means a bettor who lays down just $100 stands to win $1,500 if 'I'll Have Another' finishes first in the next two races. The 'No' odds are listed at -2000.
Each year, after the Kentucky Derby winner is named, VRB Marketing asks its partner sites to analyze whether or not that horse will take the Triple Crown. With the Preakness Stakes set to get underway on May 19th, interest in 'I'll Have Another' has skyrocketed.
While only a champion for a handful of days, 'I'll Have Another' has garnered some tremendous action on SportsBettingOnline's prop bet in the last few days alone. The "yes" at +15/1 is garnering most of the attention from bettors hoping that the elusive Triple Crown winner will be 'I'll Have Another'.
More information on the Triple Crown odds, plus all other live lines can be found at VRB Marketing's partner site, SportsBettingOnline.
