William Hill’s 2020 Kentucky Derby Futures Pool

Last Updated on June 9, 2020

On the eve of what would normally be Belmont Week, there’s been a major shakeup atop the 2020 Kentucky Derby futures pool. Bob Baffert’s undefeated colt Nadal suffered a condylar fracture during a four-furlong workout at Santa Anita last week, ending his racing career. Nadal, who won the Arkansas Derby, Rebel Stakes, and San Vicente Stakes, earned over $1 million in his four-race career. He was 4-to-1 in William Hill’s futures pool prior to his retirement.

Tiz the Law is now the 4-to-1 favorite for the 2020 Kentucky Derby, followed by Authentic (+500), Charlatan (+500) and Maxfield (+800). The Belmont will be the first leg of this year’s Triple Crown on June 20, and has been shortened to nine furlongs. The Kentucky Derby will be run on September 5, followed by the Preakness Stakes on October 3.
