How to watch the 2022 Kentucky Derby
CBSN
The Kentucky Derby is the next major sporting event to move a step closer to normalcy after two years of upheaval adjusting to COVID-19 restrictions. After fluctuating dates and crowds, Churchill Downs will welcome everybody without restrictions on Saturday — raising hopes of getting back to 150,000 or more fans beneath the Twin Spires.
Zandon was the morning-line favorite for the $3 million marquee event for 3-year-olds, drawing 3-1 odds Monday. As of early Friday afternoon, the winner of last month's Blue Grass at Keeneland in Lexington had 8-1 odds.
Epicenter, initially expected to be the Derby favorite, and Santa Anita Derby winner Taiba were the favored betting choices early Friday afternoon at 5-1 each. The odds will keep changing in the hours leading up to Saturday's 6:57 p.m. ET post time.
