I’ll Have Another wins the 2012 Kentucky Derby at 12-1 odds.  This is the first win in history for post position 19.  Amazing.

Finishing second was Bodemeister.  Dullahan finished 3rd.

Bodemeister led early with Trinniberg while Hansen was acting up.  Union Rags was boxed in.  Bodemeister led right up to the final seconds before I’ll Have Another came up and won it.

Alpha Kentucky Derby Odds at 14 to 1 Overnight Saturday Not Much Value

Alpha was coming in at 14-1 odds to win the 2012 Kentucky Derby overnight and into the morning hours of race day.

Considering his slow starts and the fact that he has had gate issues, 14-1 odds is hardly a fair price.  Not to mention his post position at 11 has a poor history for winning.
