Kentucky Betting – Post Positions and Odds for the Derby

Kentucky Betting – Post Positions and Odds for the Derby. The field has been set for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby and the morning line odds are out in Kentucky betting.  Dialed In is the 4-1 morning line favorite in Kentucky Derby betting followed by Uncle Mo at 9-2 and Nehro at 6-1. Here is a look at the full field for the 137th running of the Kentucky Derby.

Favorites
Dialed In is the favorite in Kentucky Derby betting and he has a favorable post coming out of #8.  Uncle Mo will have more work to do as the second choice since he starts from the outside in post #18. If you had questions about Uncle Mo before, and many people did, the outside post isn’t going to make you feel any better about his chances.  Trainer Todd Pletcher said that he doesn’t expect Uncle Mo to be too far back but considering the worries about Uncle Mo making the distance, a battle at the beginning of the race with two other speed horses, Soldat and Shackleford is not good news for Uncle Mo.  The third choice in the betting at Sbg global is Nehro and it is hard to get too excited about him now that he will be starting from post #19.  Even the fourth choice in Kentucky betting, Archarcharch will have to overcome starting from the rail.
