The 143rd Run for the Roses is just about here. All of the horses have made it to Louisville and are ready to run in the Kentucky Derby on Saturday where forecasts look to give us a wet and sloppy track.
As the races gets closer, the odds have changed a bit from the initial posting with Always Dreaming now the favorite to win on Saturday after Classic Empire opened as the favorite. But even as the odds change, many of the gambling experts believe this is a wide open race where up to seven different horses have a chance to win it all.
Horses and jockeys are expected to hit the starting post at Churchill Downs at 6:46 p.m. ET on Saturday.
Here's a look at the complete race field with the latest odds from KentuckyDerby.com.
