Just like in NASCAR odds, with the Daytona 500, the Triple Crown races tip off via the Kentucky Derby, which saw Mage backers cash at 16-1 odds. Following the Preakness, the Belmont Stakes completes the Triple Crown races. While Triple Crown odds are off the board at most sportsbooks, Mage can be found at +650 to accomplish the rare feat.
His path to winning the Derby became somewhat clearer when favorites Forte and Practical Move were scratched. Although Mage began in the back of competition, he utilized a respectable Beyer Speed Figure to win the Derby by a length in just his fourth race.
