The 2022 Kentucky Derby winner Rich Strike will pay out $70 for every $20 bet with a Belmont Stakes victory.
What They Are Saying
Rich Strike was the second biggest long shot to ever win the Kentucky Derby and he's still not getting much love coming into the Belmont Stakes. We the People and Mo Donegal are technically bigger favorites.
Rich Strike had never won a grade 1 race prior to the Kentucky Derby. It should be noted that, of his last seven starts, he's only finished worse than 4th in one of those. Can Rich Strike be hitting his peak and might the rest help? (his trainer opt not to run him in the Preakness Stakes)
“The only thing that concerns us is the favorite [We the People] seems to like a wet track an awful lot,” trainer Eric Reed said. “Our rider said he [Rich Strike] loves the mud. We'll take whatever we get.”
