If you live in a US state where it's difficult to bet on the Louisiana Derby, don't fret.  Our friends at Jazz Sports offer betting on the Louisiana Derby as well as 10% daily cashback.  They have been serving the gambling public since 1994 and will NEVER ask for a social security number or report your winnings.

The Louisiana Derby is among the most critical prop races ahead of the Kentucky Derby.  Case in point, the 2022 race offered top-tier qualifying points to the Kentucky Derby, distributing them on a 100-40-20-10 basis to the first four finishers.

The Grade II race is run on 1+3⁄16 miles of dirt and features a $1 million purse.

Oddly enough, the Louisiana Derby wins have not necessarily translated to success at the Kentucky Derby.

Since its inception, only two winners of the Louisiana Derby have gone on to win the Kentucky Derby: Black Gold in 1924, and Grindstone in 1996. The 1988 winner, Risen Star, went on to become a "Dual Classic Winner" by winning the Preakness and Belmont Stakes.
