The 149th running of the Kentucky Derby is scheduled to go off just before 7:00 p.m. Saturday evening. But, before that, there will be a lot of reviewing of previous race results and then bets made. Jim Goodman is director of wagering development at Keeneland. He offered a few suggestions to Lexington Rotarians Thursday. Goodman explained there is one sure bet people can make.
“You go to the Derby and you just want to win. You just want to brag to your fellow….if you just want to win…do two dollars to win on all horses..40 bucks. Last year you would have gotten 168 dollars back. Cause he was 80 to one. Most years that doesn’t happen.”
