Superfecta = pick 1st–4th in exact order at the Kentucky Derby. Very difficult due to ~20-horse field and race unpredictability, but payouts are large. Usually only a few winners each year; 2026 likely similar.
Attraction: high-reward excitement. Restraint: extremely low probability and strong dependence on luck.

Diane Crump, who in 1969 became the first woman to ride professionally in a horse race and a year later became the first female jockey in the Kentucky Derby, has died. She was 77. Her daughter says she died Thursday night in hospice care in Winchester, Virginia, three months after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer. The racetrack president at Churchill Downs said in a statement that Crump “will be forever respected and fondly remembered in horse racing lore.” After Crump made history in 1970, it would be 14 more years before another female jockey would ride in the Derby.
