If you're looking for the Preakness Stakes payouts on win, place, show, and more, we have you covered below. 

Preakness Stakes payouts

Payout figures include Preakness Stakes exacta, trifecta, and superfecta picks.

  • First Place: Napoleon Solo (Win: $17.80, Place: $9.80, Show: $7.40)
    Second Place: Iron Honor (Place: $9.20, Show: $6.60)
    Third Place: Chip Honcho (Show: $8.20)

  • $2.00 Exacta (10-9, $107.20)
  • $1.00 Trifecta (10-9-6, $597.10)
    $1.00 Superfecta (10-9-6-2, $2,377.80)

Let's explain what each wager means:

  • Preakness Stakes win: If you bet on a horse to win, and the horse finishes in first place.
  • Preakness Stakes place: If you bet on a horse to finish in the Top 2. If the horse wins the race or finishes in second, you win the bet.
  • Preakness Stakes show: If you bet on a horse to finish in the Top 3. If the horse wins the race, finishes second or finishes third, you win the bet.
  • Preakness Stakes exacta: An exacta bet is when you bet on a specific horse to finish first and a specific horse to finish second. To win, the horses must finish in that exact order.
  • Preakness Stakes trifecta: A trifecta is like an exacta bet except with one extra leg. You must correctly pick the order in which the Top 3 horses cross the finish line.
  • Preakness Stakes superfecta: A superfecta is along the same lines as an Exacta and Trifecta, except you must hit the Top 4 horses in correct order.

Obviously, with those exotic Preakness Stakes bets (exacta, trifecta, superfecta), the bigger the odds and the bigger the payouts will be, the more legs you add.
