Arkansas Derby 2020 Results: Field, Odds & Payouts For Kentucky Derby Prep Race
The year of 2020 sports may go down as the most bizarre ever. With COVID-19 taking center stage and bringing sports to a halt, horse racing has pushed on.
It’s not the same, and the schedule has been flipped sideways, but the major stake races will take place this year – including today’s Arkansas Derby.
Arkansas Derby – who to watch
If Bob Baffert has a horse in the race, you have to pay attention! The Baffert-trained Charlatan is the heavy favorite in the first division (Race 11, 6:29 p.m. ET) to take home the title.
Charlatan is the even-money morning line favorite.
Basin is also one to watch. Being the only graded stakes winner in this field, 8/1 odds look nice!
The second division (Race 13, 7:43 p.m. ET) seems to have a bit more talent, per se. On paper, this is definitely the tougher of the two races.
Race 13 will feature Oaklawn’s Rebel (G2) winner Nadal, Louisiana Derby (G2) victor Wells Bayou, and Tampa Bay Derby (G2) winner King Guillermo.
While the morning line odds have Nadal installed as the 5-2 favorite. The competition will be fierce.
