Tacitus Kentucky Derby Payout Odds

Tacitus will pay out $100 for every $10 bet with a 2019 Kentucky Derby win.

Tacitus must be looked at seriously having won his last two races, both grade 2 and both significant: The Tampa Bay Derby and Wood Memorial.

His post position of gate 8 has produced ten winners in the Kentucky Derby.

Tacitus is a competant closer and inbred 3x4 to Derby winner Unbridled.  He will be Juddmonte Farms fifth entry in a Kentucky Derby.  Two of their horses (Aptitude in 2000 and Empire Maker 2003) finished second.

"When we broke him and started to canter him, he had that same beautiful stride that Unbridled and Empire Maker had—a magnificent metronome-like stride where they can knock off the fractions and go on seemingly forever," said Garrett O'Rourke, Juddmonte's manager in North America. "He was a smooth-moving horse from day one."
