Kentucky Derby Betting: Track Condition Affects the Kentucky Derby Odds

The 2010 Kentucky Derby field is set and the Kentucky Derby Odds have been made. This years Kentucky Derby betting will involve the weather since there is currently a 100% chance of rain. The bad weather will ultimately affect the track conditions for the 136th Kentucky Derby. There are several factors to take into consideration when looking over the Kentucky Derby odds.

The racetrack at Churchill Downs is expected to see 2 to 3 inches of rainfall by the 6:30 pm ET Kentucky Derby post time tonight. To say the track will be sloppy is a huge understatement considering the amount of rainfall that is expected. The possibility of the 136th Kentucky Derby being postponed is very possible given the anticipated track conditions. The Kentucky Derby odds are expected to change a lot during the day.

The chance of a long shot winning the 136th Kentucky Derby is extremely possible. Some horses run better in the slop and others do not perform as well. One of the big things for officials to consider is the actual safety of the jockeys along with the horses in considering to postpone the 2010 Derby. Looking at the Kentucky Derby odds I would take some big long shots now before the Derby odds change due to the bad track conditions.
