Question

How can I view the field for the Kentucky Derby, and how can I bet on the horses?

Answer 1

After the Post Position draw tomorrow at 5 p.m. ET, you will be able to get the lineup on any number of Internet sites; I suggest The Blood-Horse, a weekly magazine that covers Thoroughbred racing, as the draw will also have an article with analysis.

To wager, you can set up an on-line account with Xpressbet and actually watch the race from its website. The wagering site in run by Magna Corp., which owns many tracks in North America, and is an excellent place to wager/watch races/gain information from a variety of media sources.

You will also be able to play the race at selected race tracks through simulcasting. Contact the Thoroughbred/Standardbred tracks in your area to find out if there is Derby wagering.

Answer 4

Churchill Downs just announced that they will have online betting for the Derby for the first time.  After 9:00am this morning, you can log on to thier site, and register to be a member of the Twin Spires club.  You must deposit $50 to begin, but there are no charges associated with betting.  Good luck!
