Champion two-year-old Citizen Bull, a convincing winner of the Robert B. Lewis (G3) on Feb. 1, has been installed as the 6-1 morning line favorite among 39 individual entrants in Pool 4 of the Kentucky Derby Future Wager (KDFW), which opens its three-day run Friday.
Win and exacta bets will be offered in Pool 4, which opens Friday at noon (ET) and closes Sunday at 6 p.m., and wagering is available at racetracks and simulcast outlets across North America and online through TwinSpires.com, the official wagering provider of Churchill Downs Incorporated and the Kentucky Derby.
Six-time Kentucky Derby winner Bob Baffert leads all trainers with six entrants, including Barnes, who is listed as the 8-1 second choice among individual entrants and was bet down to 6-1 favoritism in Pool 3 last month.
Four runners in Saturday’s Risen Star (G2) at Fair Grounds -- Built, East Avenue, Jonathan’s Way, and Vassimo -- are included in Pool 4.
In total, six Future Wager pools were scheduled ahead of the $5 million Kentucky Derby (G1) on May 3. Pool 5 will run March 14-16 and Pool 6 is scheduled for April 3-5. Pool 5 will also include the Kentucky Oaks Future Wager.
The mutuel field of “All Other 3-Year-Olds” tops Churchill Downs oddsmaker Mike Battaglia’s morning line at 9-2.
There are no refunds in the Kentucky Derby Future Wager. If Churchill Downs officials determine during the duration of this week’s pool that one of the wagering interests experiences an injury, illness or other circumstance that would prevent the horse from participating in the Kentucky Derby, betting on the individual horse will be suspended immediately.
