Kentucky Derby odds: 5 weekend winners make moves in Nevada
{{monthName}} {{day}}, {{year}} {{hour12}}:{{minuteTwoDigit}}{{dayPeriod}}
While likely juvenile champion Forte was made an even shorter-priced favorite at one sportsbook, five weekend winners made moves in the Las Vegas futures market for Kentucky Derby 2023.
Kingsbarns, an $800,000 Uncle Mo colt owned by Spendthrift Farm, opened at Circa Sports and settled by Monday morning at 55-1, one day after his 1 3/4-length debut victory at Gulfstream Park. Trained by Todd Pletcher, Kingsbarns got a Beyer Speed Figure of 74 from Daily Racing Form.
Hejazi, the Bob Baffert-trained prospect who cost Amr Zedan a sale-topping $3.55 million last May, was cut from 175-1 at Circa and from 100-1 to 75-1 at Caesars Sportsbook after his maiden-breaking victory Sunday at Santa Anita. The Bernardini colt went 0-for-3 as a 2-year-old but also had a 100 Beyer in a second-place finish to stablemate Speed Boat Beach last summer at Del Mar.
$3.55 million Baffert colt breaks maiden at Santa Anita.
Verifying, a Grade 1 runner-up last year for trainer Brad Cox, went from 125-1 to 90-1 at Caesars and from 155-1 to 75-1 at Circa after his 5 1/4-length allowance win Saturday at Oaklawn. The Justify colt who cost $775,000 as a yearling earned a career-best 97 Beyer from the two-turn mile. Jonathan Poulin and Coolmore own Verifying, who last year won his debut, placed second in the Champagne (G1) and finished a troubled sixth in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile.
Shopper’s Revenge, a Tapit colt trained by Steve Asmussen, shortened from 200-1 to 125-1 at Circa on the back of his maiden-breaking, 5 1/4-length triumph going 1 1/16 miles Saturday at Oaklawn. Bred and owned by Whisper Hill Farm and Three Chimneys Farm, Shopper’s Revenge got an 85 Beyer.
Clubhouse, a Speightstown colt who broke his maiden Saturday at Aqueduct on his sixth try, shortened from 275-1 to 175-1 at Circa after his 6 1/2-length score. Pletcher trains Clubhouse, whom Eddie Harrell and Jack and Laurie Wolf bought as a yearling for $425,000.
Forte, whom Pletcher gave a break since a Breeders’ Cup Juvenile win two months ago, was cut by Circa from 9-1 to 7-1, or plus 750 to be exact. At Caesars, he and Baffert’s debut winner Arabian Knight held firm as 10-1 co-favorites.
Caesars listed 136 horses Monday morning, shortening the odds for 16 since and drifting them for four others. Since last week it opened Worcester at 125-1 after a second-place finish to stablemate Hejazi.
With its addition of Kingsbarns and maidens Sgt. Pepper at 125-1 and Sully at 250-1, Circa brought its total to 220 horses. The odds went shorter for 17 and longer for 100 horses. Circa also dropped the injured Spun Intended, who had been 125-1.
These were the 223 horses listed Monday morning in the Nevada futures market for Kentucky Derby 2023 in order of their best odds as shown in bold face:
