Kentucky Derby Results: Odds, Post Positions, And Predictions For The 2023 Run For The Roses
The 2023 Kentucky Derby will take place on Saturday from historic Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. Which horse will win the 149th edition of the Run for the Roses? We believe we have a good idea.
Don’r Sleep on the Long Shots
It’s easy to say Forte and Tapit will be neck and neck running toward the finish line this evening in Louisville. The simple truth is, if the favorites always won, everyone would gamble for a living.
Now, I’m not saying that either of the two horses mentioned above won’t win today – because it would surprise no one if Tapit or Forte were in the winner’s circle. However, there are three horses to keep an eye on that would have a much better payout according to the latest ML odds.
Angel of Empire was our pick to win the Arkansas Derby, and we cashed in some nice tickets. Don’t sleep on him today! At 8-1 odds, it wouldn’t surprise us if another victory is at hand.
Two others that could shock today are Kingsbarns and Two Phil’s. Also, don’t ask me why, but I can see Skinner making a few bucks as well!
