Since betting on the Derby brings out many people who wouldn’t normally bet on horse racing, odds can be drastically different from sportsbook to sportsbook. We always stress the importance of shopping for the best line when it comes to games and totals but it certainly holds true for any bet or investment you make. For instance, you one April 16th you could get Bolo at 50:1 at BetOnline but only 28:1 at Sportsbook. A $10 bet on Bolo would net $500 at BetOnline but only $280 at Sportsbook, a difference of $220 all because you placed your bet at one book over another.
