The Kentucky Derby, which serves as the first leg of the U.S. Triple Crown Series, is bound to happen on September 5, 2020. For the first time in a long time, the Derby won’t settle in May due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Churchill Downs Inc. makes sure that they abide by the law imposed by the U.S. Government to either cancel or postpone any sporting events to control the outbreak.
Although it’s a bit frustrating that the Derby gets moved to a later date this year, this will give every Derby hopeful a longer time to prepare so they can train well before the competition starts. At the same time, every bettor can also take the extended time in studying race entries carefully to come up with the best bets to wager in the upcoming Derby.
The Derby trails are still happening to rank every entry according to their racing accomplishments. So, if you are one of the bettors who want to create stronger TVG Kentucky Derby picks and betting lines, here are the top performers in the Kentucky Derby odds ranking for the first quarter of this year.
Tiz The Law was an early favorite since January for the 2020 Kentucky Derby. He was one of the racehorses that maintained a stronger horse racing form. He even made his ranking more convincing after conquering the Holy Bull Stakes last February 1, 2020. On March 28, 2020, he is set to compete in the Florida Derby. If he wins, he is getting a sure berth in the Run For The Roses this September.
Disappointed with the results in the Louisiana Derby last Saturday for taking fifth place, Enforceable still manages to get the second spot in the current Derby ranking for the first quarter. Do know that he had accomplished huge Derby trails, including a second place in the Risen Star Stakes at Fair Grounds. Aside from that, he is also the current titleholder for the Lecomte Stakes held last January 18, 2020.
Wells Bayou was way too far in the 2020 Kentucky odds ranking during the early months. However, this horse hustled hard in the Derby trail and won second place in the Southwest Stakes last February 17, 2020. He outshined other Derby hopefuls after winning the Louisiana Derby last March 21, 2020, helping him earn the third spot in the current ranking.
Together with Wells Bayou, Ete Indien was not a performer during the early odds ranking for this year’s Kentucky Derby. Although he competed in stakes races last year, his odds value only ascended after placing second in the Holy Bull Stakes. After that, his odds became stronger, which settled him in the fourth spot after winning the Fasig-Tipton Fountain of Youth Stakes held last February 29, 2020.
Authentic is one of the Derby hopefuls that maintained an undefeated rank in the Derby trail. His racing forms are composed of successful accomplishments in a few Derby prep races. On January 4, 2020, he competed in the Grade 3 Sham Stakes, where he won the title. After that, he participated in Grade 2 San Felipe Stakes, where he also won first place. On April 1, 2020, he will try his luck in Santa Anita Derby to secure a sure spot in the Derby.
Trained by Todd Pletcher and ridden by John R. Velazques, Gouverneur Morris settles in the sixth spot for the first quarter ranking of 2020 Kentucky Derby odds. Although this horse has not competed in stakes races, he is trying his luck at the Florida Derby this Saturday. If he wins, it will serve as his ticket to earn a sure entry to the upcoming Kentucky Derby.
Silver Prospector, which is a current Southwest Stakes titleholder, settles on the seventh spot for March 2020 Kentucky Derby’s final ranking. He had been working out in many races to earn enough Derby qualifying points. Last March 14, 2020, he competed in the Rebel Stakes but ended in sixth place. On May 2, 2020, he will participate in the Arkansas Derby so that he will make it in Run For The Roses in September.
Nadal takes the final spot for the first quarter ranking of the Kentucky Derby odds. Like Authentic, he is another undefeated racehorse to look forward to in the upcoming Derby competition. Last February 9, 2020, he earned the title after winning in the San Vicente Stakes. At the same time, he also competed in the Rebel Stakes, which happened last March 14, 2020, and won the race.
The competition and odds ranking for the 2020 Kentucky Derby are tight, and every hopeful must win in various Derby prep races to earn significant accomplishments. Therefore, as the first quarter of this year closes, the top eight horses listed above have made the cut of gaining the most impressive Derby odds ranking that you can wager this coming September.
