Share to twitterIf you’ve ever been to Keeneland Racecourse in Lexington, Kentucky, you may well have encountered friendly people in green vests scattered throughout the track. They sport green bowties and khaki-colored hats. A big button pinned to the vests reads, “Ask me about betting.”They are a reminder of the most fundamental thing about horse racing: the gambling.
Julie and Nick Tooth are two Keeneland BETologists, assisting customers with both handicapping and wagering. You can be good at one but not the other; they want to help you be good at both and cash some tickets. For the past several years, Julie and Nick have offered advice on how to bet $100 on the Kentucky Derby, and they’re back this year to help with Saturday's race. Whileand the uncertain weather forecast make their job a daunting one, they’ve nonetheless put together tickets that total $99 each in the hope of helping you make a bunch of money on Saturday.
Even if you’re not in Louisville, you can still place these bets: at a racetrack near you, at an off-track betting facility or through an online or telephone betting account.The links below will take you to a glossary of betting terms; you may need to scroll down to find the term you’re looking for.The Kentucky Derby field is too big to hit the “all” button, so you have to whittle horses away, and Omaha Beach’s defection has forced me to re-look at every horse in the race.
I will go with the improvers over the somewhat inconsistent “class” horses—and, of course, there are still the track conditions to contend with.
So if I bet $100 based on these suggestions for as long as they have been doing it, what would my net gains/losses to date have been. Bet last year on this and had net loss of like $90. 😏
