Bodog.com have announced that it has extended an offer to Triple Crown Productions to put up the $5-million prize for any owner whose horse wins all three races of the Triple Crown.
'Winning all three of these thoroughbred horse races represents the pinnacle of horse racing,' said Calvin Ayre, Founder and CEO of Bodog.com. 'Bodog.com would be honoured to play a part in ensuring that one of the sport's greatest and rarest prizes is kept intact.'
The Triple Crown is widely accepted to be horse racing's most prestigious and highly regarded racing series.

The 131st Preakness Stakes runs at Pimlico Racecourse in Baltimore on May 20, and the 138th Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park in Long Island, N.Y., on June 10 rounds out the Triple Crown.
