BEGINNER

Where to begin?

Placing a bet on the Kentucky Derby is a fun way to have a rooting interest in the race outcome, even if you don’t know much about the sport of horse racing.

Intermediate

How to improve your betting?

Step foot into exotic betting with exactas, trifectas and superfectas! Do you know the impact of training workouts, final race times, or the best way to bet your Kentucky Derby horse on a budget of $2, $10, $25, or $100!? Maybe you know a thing or two about betting on horse races, but expert horseplayers take multiple factors into consideration before making their selections and choosing their bets.

Advanced

Want to take your handicapping to the next level?

Have you attempted a vertical sequence such as a Daily Double, Pick 3, Pick 4, Pick 5 or a Pick 6 before? Maybe you regularly watch and analyze horse racing and can understand a racing program with past performances, but can you spot a class improvement or class drop, or use speed and class ratings which could impact a race performance and the race competition?

Expert

Discover an additional edge

When it comes to handicapping horse races, knowing how to bet is every bit as important as knowing who to bet. Expert horseplayers spend a large portion of their time constructing sound, logical wagers designed to give them the best chance at generating profits. Bankroll management, sound ticket construction and data inclusion into your opinions are paramount for optimal success in wagering.
