Betfair appear to be the only major bookmaker not offering a market on the Kentucky Derby. How bizarre!

Ian Chuter, Betfair's operations director, told me:

we don't have a commercial agreement with them. Not for the want of trying some reason they are anti exchanges

I feel as though you are trying to tempt me to buy a VPS ;)

And I must say it seems very strange how they can't put the race on the exchange given its on the Sportsbook.
