ODDS-ON: In 32 runnings of the Derby, there has been an odds-on favorite (a horse, which if he won, would pay less than even money). Seventeen have won and 11 have been second. Others finished worse than third.

PAY-OFFS: Citation (1948) (coupled with Coaltown) and Count Fleet (1943) each paid $2.80. These were the smallest winning prices recorded since pari-mutuel betting on the Derby was introduced in 1908. Hindoo (1881), Halma (1895), and Agile (1905) each paid 1-to-3 to win the Derby. Donerail (1913) paid $184.90 for each $2 win ticket, a record Derby return.
