I Want Revenge remains the biggest favorite in the Kentucky Derby lineup and has tons of skill but there are red flags showing up lately.
I Want Revenge is the popular pick right now but the Kentucky Derby odds are giving him a little too much respect at the current line of 7/2.
There are many quality horses in this race and there are a few bad things about this horse that may make you think twice before solidifying him as one of the Kentucky Derby favorites.
TheOnlinewire.com teamed up with our preferred online racebooks, Bodog Racebook and SBG Global Racebook to bring our readers the latest news and the best odds to bet on each of its three legs and on the 2009 edition of the Triple Crown.
Both Bodog Racebook and SBG Global Racebook provide horse wagering enthusiasts the highest wagering standards along with enticing promotions and sign up bonuses and financial safety.
Some great things about this horse are the fact that he has a ton of stamina in his blood lines with ties to Seattle Slew, A.P Indy, and Stephen Got Even amongst others so this Derby race should be tailor-made to the horse’s best attribute.
Next, he has won his last two races with victories at Gotham and the Wood Memorial while going up against strong fields.
There are two main reasons that make me believe this horse does not deserve to be the favorite in this Kentucky Derby lineup and one of them has to do with the poor track times he’s ran recently at Churchill Downs.
Running well below expectations right before the Derby is never a good sign for the biggest of all the Kentucky Derby favorites.
As good as I Want Revenge has looked in his last two races is counterbalanced by the fact that he finished 2nd and 3rd in the two races before his victories.
People are short-sighted and don’t seem to be worried that a horse that has won 50% of his last 4 races is the favorite on the Kentucky Derby betting odds.
TheOnlinewire.com, in cooperation with Bodog Racebook and SBG Global Racebook, will provide daily updates, news and the latest odds on the Triple Crown 2009 and its individual legs starting with the 135th running of the Kentucky Derby on May 2nd.
