Let’s have a look at all the horses in the 135^th Kentucky Derby. Please note all odds are current at time of writing.

I Want Revenge    9/4

I Want Revenge is the current odds on favorite to win the derby and it’s easy to see why. The horse has never finished lower than 3^rd. The horse was impressive in both the Wood Memorial and Gotham Stakes at Aqueduct.  Trainer Jeff Mullins who is returning from a 1 week anti-drug suspension can hardly contain himself.
