Kentucky Derby winner American Pharoah remains the favorite to win Saturday's 140th running of the Preakness Stakes, according to SportsBook.ag.

At the beginning of the week, American Pharoah was a 5-6 favorite to win the second leg of the Triple Crown, but the colt moved up slightly to a 10-13 favorite after drawing the rail position on Wednesday.

Saturday morning, American Pharoah remained the odds-on favorite at 5-7.

The top three finishers at the Kentucky Derby—American Pharoah, Firing Line, which came in second, and Dortmund, which finished third—will all compete in the Preakness.
