2010 Santa Anita Derby: Horse Racing Tips/Picks/Predictions/Odds


It’s time to check out the horse racing odds and release tips, picks, and predictions in today’s 2010 Santa Anita Derby.
Lookin At Lucky (4-to-5 odds) is the 2010 Santa Anita Derby favorite and I’m just not sure I see him winning this race. He really doesn’t have to win this race to be the 2010 Kentucky Derby favorite and I’m just not sure how much risk his trainers will want to give him on short rest.
That being said, Lookin At Lucky is still good enough to finish top 3, and a Santa Anita Derby win would not surprise me in the slightest. A better bet to win would be Sidney’s Candy as a small underdog. This colt should be right there with the Santa Anita race favorite coming along the back stretch and I think the relative lack of pace in today’s race will set both of these horses up to finish near the top.
NBC is televising the 2010 Santa Anita Derby live and the post time is set for a little after 5:30 PM ET. The Wood Memorial will be shown just prior to this race and we definitely recommend tuning in at post time.
One thing is for certain and that is the fact that you’ll want to sign-up for an account at SBGglobal Sportsbook before post time of the 2010 Santa Anita Derby. This established book not only has a 30% cash bonus to new customers but also give horse racing bettors a 5% weekly rebate on wagers. It’s too good to pass up in our opinion and these guys come with our stamp of approval.
The pace I just mentioned has me writing off premier closers like Alphie’s Bet (8-to-1 odds) despite the fact this horse is coming off a strong finish in the Sham.
A better bet for Santa Anita Derby picks and predictions is long shot Who’s Up at 20-to-1 odds. I don’t feel the pace sets up the closers and Who’s Up is a horse capable of being near the front in a good spot in the backstretch.
