Six months in advance of the 150th GI Kentucky Derby, the pari-mutuel field of “All Other Colts and Geldings” closed as the odds-on 4-5 favorite in Pool 1 of the Kentucky Derby Future Wager and GI Claiborne Breeders' Futurity winner Locked (Gun Runner) was the 14-1 second choice, Churchill Downs said in a release late Thursday after betting closed.
Other horses who attracted mild interest included Dornoch (Good Magic) (19-1), a full brother to this year's Kentucky Derby winner Mage, and GI Champagne S. winner Timberlake (Into Mischief) (20-1).
Total handle for the Oct. 31-Nov. 2 KDFW pool–the first of six–was $164,278 ($132,033 in the Win pool and $32,245 in Exactas), a 43% jump from last year's $114,910 ($90,007 in the Win pool and $24,903 in Exactas).
