It's tough to pick the winner of the Kentucky Derby. Why not go for the Top 5 finishers and bet if your favorite horse will finish within the top 5.
Only Forte and Tapit Trice come in with a minus (-) line. Forte was listed at -220. This means you would bet $22 to win $10. That $22 bet is returned just as long as the horse is a winner. A $44 bet results in a $20 profit.
Tapit Trice is a good pick. You would bet close to even (-110). Bet $11 to win $10 and get back that $11 just as long as Tapit Trice wins.
Nearly half the field of horses pay out $45 for every $10 bet to finish within the top 5.
Check out each horse's most recent record and whether they finished in the top 3 in most of their regular entries.
