Kentucky Derby Odds – Superfecta
Exactas too boring for you? Trifectas not turning your crank? Then you might need to upgrade your exotic bets. You need the granddaddy of them all, the superfecta.
The concept is simple: just pick the first four horses to cross the finish line. Oh, and you have to pick them in their exact order of finish. Piece of cake, right? No matter how familiar you are with the horses, the chances of you actually winning a superfecta are pretty small. However with high risk comes high reward. Getting the superfecta right at the December 15 CashCall Futurity (Violence, Fury Kapcori, Den’s Legacy, Oxbow) would have earned you $10,268.80 on a mere $2 bet.
To play a superfecta at your online racebook, all you have to do is go to the race page in question and click on the superfecta tab. The online race ticket will give you checkboxes for every horse to finish first, second, third or fourth. Check the appropriate boxes, review your selections, make any changes you need to and submit your ticket. If you’re a more experienced horse player and you want to fill out a Superfecta Box or a Superfecta Wheel, the software will sort these out for you automatically. Keep reading for more information about boxes, wheels and other Kentucky Derby betting strategies.
The more horses you add to your exotic bet, the harder it is to win, so we highly recommend you keep your bet sizes small in these speculative situations. However, you’ll definitely want to consider adding a superfecta to your Kentucky Derby betting experience. Whether you’re at Churchill Downs in person, hosting an afternoon Kentucky Derby party or simply placing a few bets for your own benefit, nailing the superfecta will give you something special to talk about in addition to all that cash.
