The early for Always Dreaming to win the 2017 Kentucky Derby was $45 for every $10 bet at US Racing. You will want to lock the current price to win the Triple Crown here as the odds will likely get shorter.
Always Dreaming won his first and only graded race, the Florida Derby, last month and looked fantastic. Though a favorite to win the Kentucky Derby, he was a long favorite, as high as 6-1 earlier in the week.
From the Associated Press heading into this year's Kentucky Derby:
(Always Dreaming) appears to be coming into his own after impressive five-length win in Florida Derby. Always Dreaming has the potential to be the first Derby favorite for trainer Todd Pletcher, who will have two other starters in the race. The dark bay colt prefers to run at the lead or close to it. His sire Bodemeister finished second in the 2012 Derby. He has three wins in five career starts and earnings of $648,900. Pletcher and jockey John Velazquez have one Derby win apiece. The main knock against the colt is that his two wins as a 3-year-old have come against lesser competition.
