Not going to make it to the Kentucky Derby in person in 2016? Not to worry – while millions of people would love to be present at Churchill Downs to watch another installment of horse racing history, only around 170,000 are able to make it out to the track. That means the rest of the world is left to watch the race on television from home. However, that doesn’t mean you have to be left out of the wagering action, as online wagering is available through a number of sources. Wagering online for the Kentucky Derby in 2016 is a lot easier than most bettors in the USA and Canada would have guessed.
You can sign up to wager on the Kentucky Derby race through a variety of online companies, including directly through the official Kentucky Derby website. When selecting a site to use for your wagering, make sure you do your homework and select a reputable company that you can trust with your business. A little research into any betting platform you are considering should be enough to reveal whether or not they are a suitable choice.
Prior to race day, make sure to have your account funded so you are ready to place your wagers in advance of post time. Also, try to research the horses in advance so you aren’t left to make a last second selection. There is an incredible amount of information available on each horse in the race, so you will have no shortage of data to review prior to placing your wagers.
