Being installed as the odds-on favorite for the Kentucky Derby by Churchill Down’s is no guarantee of victory.

Last year, Curlin was given 7-2 odds but 4-1 Street Sense ended up winning the entire race.

This year, Big Brown has been heralded as the favorite at +160 but another favorite is Colonel John (+400), who could potentially take “The Run for the Roses” as well.
