Kentucky Derby 2020 Road to Betting
The road to betting on Kentucky Derby 2020 is still over three months away. However, preparations have already begun for the 146th Run for the Roses. The Road to the Kentucky Derby officially began in September with the Grade 3, $200,000 Iroquois. This for 2-year-olds at 1 1/16 miles on the opening weekend at Churchill Downs.
After that, a series of races that award points to the top four finishers is used to determine the 20-horse field that will participate in the Kentucky Derby. This year, there are 35 races scheduled to help determine which horses will qualify for the Kentucky Derby 2020. You may bet on all the races.
During the prep season 10 points are awarded to the winning horse. Also, four points for the runner-up. Subsequently, two points for the third place horse, and one points for the fourth place finisher. However, during the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, the points are doubled with the winning horse earning 20 points, the runner-up getting eight points, the third place finisher getting four points, and the fourth place finisher getting two points.
