The favored horse to win the Triple Crown race is currently California Chrome, which is a 5-2 choice. Jockey Victor Espinozo will ride the favorite horse, which has won his last four races. If California Chrome wins, it will be the fourth California-bred horse to win the Kentucky Derby.

To complete the standard 20-horse field, Pablo Del Monte (50-1 pick) could step in to the race.
