This Saturday marks the 144th running of the Kentucky Derby at fabled Churchill Downs. This is the premier horse race for three-year old thoroughbreds and one of the most heavily bet sporting events of the year when it comes to real money gambling.

When most people think about horse racing betting, they probably would say that pickin g the outright winner is the best way to wager on a race. While picking winners does make up a large portion of the handle, there are any number of ways to bet on a horse race. This is especially true when it is a race as big as the Kentucky Derby.

Every1bets.com has become the premier online betting outlet for sports, but it is also one of the best places to bet on this year’s Kentucky Derby through its racebook for horses. Along with betting odds for all your standard horse racing bets, Every1bets.com has expanded the betting action with a full set of props for this race as well as betting odds for the top head-to-head matchups in Saturday’s field.

Famed horse trainer Bob Baffert’s top entry in this year’s Kentucky Derby is Justify. This Kentucky-bred three-year old has been opened as a +350 favorite to win breaking from the No. 7 post in the expanded 20-horse field. The second-favorite to win on  the board at Every 1 Bets is trainer Aidan O’Brian’s Mendelssohn at +500 betting odds. This European-based colt will start the race farther outside from the No. 14 post.The colt with the longest odds to win is Combatant at +7000. The luck of the draw was not on the side of this Steve Asmussen-trained three-year old breaking from the No. 20 post. No horse has ever won the Kentucky Derby coming out of the No. 17 post.
