The Pennsylvania Derby is the biggest race in the nation this coming Saturday, with a $1 million purse up for grabs for three-year-olds at Parx Racing just outside of Philadelphia. The race is a 1 1/8 mile distance on a dirt track, and the race boasts a very strong field this year with some of the nations top 3-year-olds including Baeza, Goal Oriented, and Gosger.
In this article I will outline the morning line odds for the ten horses set to compete in the race this year, give my favorite pick to win and also provide a simple three step guide to getting your Pennsylvania Derby bets placed online.
Where To Bet On The Penn Derby
2025 Pennsylvania Derby Betting Odds
Here are the morning line odds and post positions for this years edition of the Pennsylvania Derby. Remember that these odds are not fixed and will change throughout the day depending on the amount of money bet on each horse.
- So Sandy 15-1
- Altobelli 50-1
- Magnitude 6-1
- David of Athens 12-1
- Happily Delusional 30-1
- Goal Oriented 5-2
- Big Truzz 10-1
- Baeza 2-1
- Gosger 4-1
- Mo Plex 12-1
Baeza drew a decent post position, and he’s the favorite to get his first big win after respectable finishes at the Jim Dandy (2nd), Belmont Stakes (3rd), Kentucky Derby (3rd), and Santa Anita Derby (2nd).
Goal Oriented is the second favorite with odds of 5-2. This is another horse that is looking for his first Grade 1 win after solid showings at the Haskell Stakes (3rd) and Preakness Stakes (4th).
Gosger is the third favorite with odds of 4-1. He finished 2nd at both the Haskell Stakes and Preakness, so I’m surprised he has longer odds than Goal Oriented heading into this race.
My Pick
I like Magnitude at odds of 6-1. He didn’t have a great run at the Travers Stakes last month (finishing 3rd), but he did win his previous two races (Iowa Derby and Fasig-Tipton Risen Star Stakes) with fast speed numbers. I think this horse can bounce back now after the Travers and if he meets his potential he could be the fastest horse in this field.
Play: Magnitude 6-1
