The Kentucky Derby is here, one of our favorite days of the year here in the Tuley’s Takes home officeAs we wrote in the VSiN Betting Guide, it’s a rite of spring just like the baseball season and the Masters. I also wrote that the most likely winner is Journalism, the 3-1 morning-line favorite who is coming into the Run for the Roses off a victory in the Santa Anita Derby.

We’re excited for Kentucky Derby weekend here in the Tuley’s Takes home office (and trust all VSiN subscribers got a nice head-start with the Derby Betting Guide. But first, we have Friday’s Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs and an undercard that I’ve heard several people say looks chalky, but I’ve had some of my best days over the years with my longshot plays when the public over bets these favorites. So let’s look at a few of these races leading up to the main event.

The NBA playoffs are underway, and we have a bit more interest here in Tuley’s Takes than in other years. That’s because pro basketball usually plays to form, with the top teams advancing most of the time, as the cream usually rises to the top in a seven-game series. I normally try to bet my “dog or pass” plays in individual games as opposed to taking the series price, but this year it looks like we could have more series upsets (though I will still be betting my dogs on a game-by-game basis).

Finally! It’s obviously been a tough Big Dance here in the Tuley’s Takes home office with our “dog or pass” approach, but we felt a little redeemed in Saturday’s Final Four. First of all, I was glad that I invoked the “pass” option with Auburn +2.5 as I didn’t feel we were getting enough points, and the Tigers did come up short in their 79-73 loss to Florida, but we did cash with our Best Bet on Under 160. I wrote that I thought it should have been in the low 150s, and that’s right where it ended.

It’s April 3 here in the Tuley’s Takes home office as I write this, so we’re one month from the First Saturday in May and the 151st Run for the Roses in the Kentucky Derby. The Derby prep races have been heating up for 2025’s 3-year-olds to qualify for a spot in the 20-horse starting gate at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, and we have two prep races this Saturday that are also part of our VSiN Hoops & Horses Pick ‘Em Challenge in partnership with 1/ST BET.
