Inside Secrets to Winning Big on the 2025 Kentucky Derby and Oaks Straight Bets and Exotics at Churchill Downs
Luxor Cafe has run faster in five consecutive races with a four-race winning streak, including three straight stakes races, and has been the favorite in every start. The No. 7 horse’s speed ratings are slower than the favorite’s, Journalism.

Four of Journalism’s five career races have been five-horse fields, with the other having nine rivals. In contrast, Luxor Cafe’s smallest field is 10 horses.Â
