Bob Baffert is now a loser in three Triple Crown tries. He just can't seem to win the Preakness. I haven't seen what the Trifecta paid but I'm sure that it paid well...

I don't know horse racing at all, but Tom Hammond was saying something yesterday paid out at $25,000 something if you had all three. That must be the trifecta. :shrug:

$25,000 seems kinda low to what some pro sports people are paid today. I don't know ANYTHING about horse racing but I would have figured at least a couple thousand.

A $2 bet on the trifecta paid you $25,209. Not a bad payoff for $2.
