'All Others' 6-5 Favorite, Ted Noffey 10-1 In KY Derby Future Wager Pool 1

Six months in advance of Kentucky Derby 152, the pari-mutuel field of “All Other Colts and Geldings” closed as the 6-5 favorite in Pool 1 of the Kentucky Derby Future Wager (KDFW). Friday's GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner and 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' Ted Noffey (Into Mischief) was the 10-1 second choice.

Other horses who attracted individual interest from bettors were all fellow 'Rising Stars': GI Del Mar Futurity winner and Juvenile third entrant Brant (Gun Runner) (14-1); Breeders' Futurity runner-up Blackout Time (Not This Time) (20-1); and Further Ado (Gun Runner) (21-1).

The pool closed Friday at 6 p.m., roughly 90 minutes before post time for the Breeders' Cup Juvenile at Del Mar.

Total handle for the Oct. 29-31 KDFW pool–the first of six scheduled wagering pools–was an early November record $184,492 ($143,448 in the Win pool and $41,044 in Exactas), a 5.6% increase from last year's $174,785 ($138,536 in the Win pool and $36,249 in Exactas).

Other Future Wager dates are set for Nov. 27-30 (Pool 2); Jan. 16-18 (Pool 3); Feb. 13-15 (Pool 4); March 13-15 (Pool 5) and April 2-4 (Pool 6). Pool 2 also will feature the Kentucky Derby Sire Future Wager, while Pool 5 will include the GI Longines Kentucky Oaks Future Wager.
