HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Saturday’s Florida Derby is the last of three races on the Gulfstream Park road to the 2025 Kentucky Derby, so betting implications are huge in this one. BetOnline sportsbook offers +140 legal sports betting odds for Sovereignty to win as the favorite.

Florida Derby Horse Betting Odds

• 10 Sovereignty (J Alvarado) +140
• 9 Tappan Street (L Saez) +320
• 4 Disruptor (I Ortiz Jr) +400
• 8 Madaket Road (T Gaffalione) +550
• 1 Neoequos (E Zayas) +1200

Bill Mott’s Sovereignty is certainly the horse to beat in this race as the leading money winner in the field. He won in the Street Sense (G3) last year and added a win in the Fountain of Youth, earning the favored +140 odds.

Sovereignty already punched their ticket into the Kentucky Derby so there’s a possibility that trainer Bill Mott lets off the gas here with a new rider in Manny Franco. Only two horses have shorter odds at Kentucky Derby betting sites than Sovereignty, but there are other horses in the Florida Derby field that can upend the favored horse.

Tappan Street, Madaket Road Best Bets For Florida Derby

Tappan Street has the second-shortest odds at FL sportsbook apps with +320 odds to win the Florida Derby. The Brad Cox trained and Luis Saez jockeyed horse is a true win contender here after winning his debut at Gulfstream last year and finished second on the derby trail earlier this year.

The best bet with the most value at legal betting sites for horse racing is Madaket Road with +550 odds. He’s posted a win and two top-three finishes to earn 31 Derby points so far, plus he’s trained by Bob Baffert.

Baffert has had eight starters at Gulfstream Park since 2017. Those horses posted three Pegasus World Cup wins and two second place finishes, so any Baffert entrant in the Florida Debry is worth a wager.
