Wagering is closed now for Pool Three, the final pool of this year's Kentucky Derby Future Wager. Total wagering for Pool Two was $386,244 for the Derby and $45,635 for the Oaks. Free past performances are available online free from BRIS for both the Derby and Oaks pools. Full rules and info for the wagers are available here.
The field remained the favorite for the Derby once again after no horses who were individual betting interests won any of the weekend preps. Eurosilver dropping out due to injury didn't help either. The mutuel field has been favored in Pool 1 in each of the Future Wager's six years, but odds on that wagering interest had traditionally climbed by Pool 3 as major contenders asserted themselves in Derby prep races. But this year's preps have produced a parade of longshots and unpredictable finishes, which have left the Derby scene without a dominant contender and sent fans scrambling to "all others" in the Future Wager. The unlikely top choice among the individual horses is Smarty Jones at 10-1, who has yet to win a race against major competition!
The Oaks picture is a bit clearer with Halfbridled still the favorite at 4-1 despite her missing the Ashland Stakes due to tieing up after a workout. Madcap Escapade came up the 7-1 second choice after her impressive win in the Ashland over Ashado who is also 7-1 but with slightly less bet on her. Silent Sighs checked in third at 9-1 while the field was still popular at 10-1.
Here are the betting numbers, opening, and closing odds for Pool Three with the final odds from Pool One and Two if they were included along with a list of horses dropped for this pool.
