Kentucky Derby OddsWatch: Monday, April 20

The OddsWatch table tracks Kentucky Derby 152 odds across four sources: the official Churchill Downs morning line (Nick Tammaro), DRF’s David Aragona, the best available fixed-odds price on Oddschecker, and the Betfair Exchange. Updated after the post position draw on April 25.

Key moves post-draw: Aragona has moved Further Ado to 9-2 favorite, dropping Renegade to 5-1 after drawing the rail. Oddschecker books have Commandment as short as 9-2. The Betfair Exchange — the sharpest market — still has Renegade shortest at 4.1 but the gap between him and Commandment (6.5) is narrowing. Aragona is notably shorter on Danon Bourbon (15-1) and Emerging Market (12-1) than anyone else.
