Oct 28, 2024 Kevin Kerstein
Fans will have their first of six chances to bet on the 151st running of the $5 million Kentucky Derby presented by Woodford Reserve (Grade I) when Pool 1 of the Kentucky Derby Future Wager opens Wednesday at noon (all times Eastern). The pool features 38 individual betting interests as well as options for “All Fillies Foaled in 2022” and “All Other Colts and Geldings Foaled in 2022.”
Bettors can place $2 Win and Exacta wagers on horses in Pool 1 with betting to conclude Friday at 6 p.m. (all times Eastern) before the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (GI) is staged at Del Mar.
The 10-1 individual favorite in Pool 1 is Breeders’ Futurity (GI) winner East Avenue, the undefeated colt owned by Godolphin and trained by Brendan Walsh who scored an eight-length debut win at Ellis Park before his decisive 5 ¼-length victory in the Breeders’ Futurity on Oct. 5. East Avenue is also expected to be the favorite in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile.
