We know the clothes and hats will be outlandish at Churchill Downs on Saturday, but some of the wagers being placed ahead of the 152nd Kentucky Derby are even crazier.

We’re less than three days away from the 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby, and there is no clear favorite at BetOnline.ag.
Renegade has the shortest odds at 5/1 and 2025 Derby winning jockey, Junior Alvarado, will ride the fourth favorite, Chief Wallabee (7/1).
Additionally, the oddsmakers at BetOnline.ag have opened lines for which horse will finish last and apparently Six Speed needs at least seven or eight speeds.
Here’s the direct link to real-time Derby lines: https://www.betonline.ag/sportsbook/futures-and-props/horses-daily/kentucky-derby.
There are also odds for the Kentucky Oaks with Meaning as the favorite: https://www.betonline.ag/sportsbook/futures-and-props/horses-daily/kentucky-derby..
