2015 Kentucky Derby Odds and Free Picks – The Favorites to win the “Run for the Roses”

American Pharoah is the 5/2 favorite on the early odds to win the 2015 Kentucky Derby and that should come as no surprise to anyone paying close attention to the sport. This outstanding colt is trained by Bob Baffert and jockey Victor Espinoza will be riding him when he breaks from the post position 18 on Saturday. American Pharoah is a helluva talent and has drawn raves from the best in the business. 80 year-old legendary trainer D. Wayne Lukas has stated that he hasn’t been impressed with a horse in a “long time” but said he that American Pharaoh “impressed the hell out of me” when he distanced himself in the Arkansas Derby by 4 to 5 lengths from Lukas’ horse and Derby contestant, Mr. Z, to win the 2015 Arkansas Derby. American Pharaoh has been in 5 career races so far and has won his last four after finishing out of the money in his first career race. His last four wins have been impressive as he has won the Del Mar Futurity (2014), FrontRunner Stakes (2014), Rebel Stakes (2015) and Arkansas Derby (2015). American Pharoah is owned by Ahmed Zayat and has won $1,411,500 in career earnings.

The horse with the second best odds to win the 2015 Kentucky Derby is Dortmund at 3/1. This sensational colt is also trained by Bob Baffert and is an outstanding 6-0-0 in six career races winning them all. Dortmund has impressive major wins in the Los Alamitos Futurity (2014), Robert B. Lewis Stakes (2015), San Felipe Stakes (2015) and Santa Anita Derby (2015). Dortmund comes from a superb pedigree as he comes from the sire of Big Brown in his third crop of foals. Big Brown won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes so Dortmund certainly will have what it takes to get the job done on Saturday in the biggest race of his life so far. Dortmund is owned by Kaleem Shah and has won $1,289,000 million so far in his career.
