2025 Kentucky Derby Prep Series
.
Updated March 24, 2025.
We are halfway down the Road to the Roses in terms of the number of prep races, and will transition to championship series races in just another week from now when the first of the 50 point races begins. Then it will be 5 short weeks for the 100 point races that will separate the colts from the juveniles.
The graphic below tells you all you need to know! Unless you’re talking about the last Kentucky Derby Futures Pool, wherein Citizen Bull was not the individual favorite.
