Kentucky Derby Odds – Who Can Challenge I Want Revenge?
By JoeDuffy.net Administrator
The Kentucky Derby odds are just two days away and there are still tough decisions to make at the racebook.

His main caveat is a long layoff; he hasn’t raced in seven weeks. The last time a horse won the Kentucky Derby odds after a seven-week layoff: 1956.

General Quarters is a major long shot at +2550, but it’s tempting to bet with your heart on this guy, as his Trainer, Tom McCarthy, is a former high-school principal from
