FanDuel Sets the Stage for the 151st Kentucky Derby with Big Bets and Exclusive Coverage

FanDuel Gears Up for the 151st Kentucky Derby



As the anticipation builds for one of the most iconic events in sports, FanDuel, North America's preeminent online gaming company, is ready to make the 151st Kentucky Derby an unforgettable experience for racing enthusiasts. Known for its innovative approach to sports betting, FanDuel is bringing fans an extensive array of betting options, exclusive promotions, and live events surrounding the Derby week.

The Kentucky Derby, often dubbed the “Run for the Roses,” is a historical spectacle that captivates millions each year. With FanDuel's partnership with Churchill Downs Inc., race fans will have unrivaled access to the action through the #1 sportsbook app. As part of this experience, FanDuel offers a unique feature that enables users to wager not only on the Derby but also on the Kentucky Oaks and every race during Derby Week with ease.

New users looking to join in on the excitement can take advantage of the $500 No Sweat First Bet, which allows them to retrieve up to $500 back as a bonus if their initial wager is unsuccessful. Existing customers are not left out either—they will also benefit from a No Sweat Win Bet for the Derby, ensuring that the thrill of betting is accessible to everyone.

Andrew Moore, General Manager of Racing at FanDuel, emphasized the significance of the Kentucky Derby in the sporting calendar. He stated, "The Kentucky Derby is one of the most historic sporting events in the world, and FanDuel is honored to be a part of it once again. We’re proud to be the first sportsbook that allows fans to engage in both sports and horse racing betting from a single platform, and we're thrilled to harness that access to inject new energy and excitement into racing's biggest day."

In addition to the betting features, Horse racing fans can look forward to extensive live coverage from FanDuel TV throughout Derby Week. The network promises continuous broadcasting, featuring in-depth analysis, behind-the-scenes insight, and expert commentary from renowned personalities in the racing industry. Fans will have front-row access to the week-long festivities, kicking off with coverage from some of racing's most trusted voices such as Todd Schrupp and Christina Blacker among others. While fans can tune into FanDuel TV and FanDuel TV+, it's worth noting that certain races may be exclusive to NBC.

Additionally, Emmy-winning host Kay Adams is set to broadcast live from Churchill Downs on May 2nd during the Up Adams show, providing viewers with a celebrity-filled experience showcasing the excitement leading up to the Derby. Later in the evening, the festivities will continue with FanDuel's signature blue carpet event, the FanDuel Kentucky Derby Party, featuring a live performance by breakout country star Shaboozey at Old Forester's Paristown Hall in Louisville.

This year, the Derby isn't just about the races; it's an event that resonates with culture and excitement, creating lively discussions and engagements among fans. Michael Shiffman, Senior VP of FanDuel TV, remarked on the cultural significance of the Kentucky Derby, saying, "We're excited to bring comprehensive coverage that fans can't find anywhere else, allowing them to experience the stories and electric atmosphere of Derby Week like never before."

As the race day approaches, it's clear that FanDuel is geared up not just for a betting extravaganza, but also for an engaging community experience that captures the essence of the Derby.
