The latter is your best chance to win big on the Kentucky Derby, since betting on horse racing online is more widely available than other sports. Without wagering, the race wouldn’t command anywhere near the attention it does, and the event is prime season for bookmakers, family pools, and also online betting. This is a marquee betting event - particularly due to the symbiotic relationship between horse racing and betting. The one-and-a-quarter mile race attracts more than 100,000 people to iconic Churchill Downs for the Run for the Roses, aka the 12th race on the second Saturday in May every year.
The Kentucky Derby is the most famous horse race in the world.
