In the latest William Hill Kentucky Derby Futures odds, Belmont Stakes winner Tiz the Law remains in place as the favorite. But the Las Vegas bookmaker offers a little shorter odds than the ones released Saturday in the Kentucky Derby Future Wager odds, a pari-mutuel pool offered by Churchill Downs.

In the William Hill odds, Tiz the Law sits at 11/5, the same as last week’s Futures release. He opened at 20/1.

In the Kentucky Derby Future Wager odds, the son of Constitution sat at 5-2 odds, and a $2 winning bet will pay out $7.20.

One of the biggest movers in the William Hill odds was Country Grammer. After winning the Grade 3 Peter Pan at Saratoga on Thursday, the son of Tonalist, who opened at 200-1, moved from 85-1 to 20-1. Country Grammer is not listed in the Churchill Downs odds and is currently 11th in the Road to the Kentucky Derby points standings.

Second place in the points standings, the William Hill odds and the Kentucky Derby Future Wager odds is Honor A. P. The colt is at 5-1 in the William Hill odds, unchanged from last week, and was 6-1 in the Churchill Downs pool odds.

Rounding out the top three of the Kentucky Derby Future Wagers odds is Uncle Chuck, at 6-1, with a $15.80 payout on a $2 winning bet. In the William Hill odds, the son of Uncle Mo, who won his last start in the Los Alamitos Derby (G3), is in fifth place at 10-1.

The William Hill odds have a tie for the third favorite, with Art Collector and Authentic both holding steady at 8-1. In the Churchill Downs pool odds, they finished at 8-1 and 9-1, respectively.

No other horses are at single-digit odds on either list. The 2020 Kentucky Derby is scheduled for Sept. 5.
