In this article we will talk horses as we work our way towards the Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing. Every country has their own triple crown, which is considered the greatest accomplishment of a thoroughbred racehorse. We will focus on the U.S Triple Crown as it is the most bet on and has the largest audience. Targeting the Triple Crown events of other countries is by no means a waste of time. Every Triple Crown is a major event in their respective countries. Each of the following countries has their own triple crown;

United States
United Kingdom
Ireland
Australia
Germany
Canada
Japan
Hong Kong
Macau
Chile
Puerto Rico
Uruguay
Ecuador
Venezuela

With Billions of dollars wagered on these events annually, it’s one of summer’s gifts to the sports betting world. Thoroughbred horse racing has always been popular in the United States. The three races consist of the 137th running of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday May 7, the 136th running of the Preakness Stakes is set for Saturday, May 21 and the 143rd running of Belmont Stakes will be held at Belmont Park on Saturday, June 11. All of these races will be televised notionally on NBC and worldwide. When people think horse racing betting is the next thought in their head.

You can find Kentucky Derby banners already posted at many affiliate programs; there is no better time than now to start promoting for the first big race!

Triple Crown Keyword ideas

Winning all three races is a rare occurrence and has not happened in the U.S since 1978 and each year this topic creates a popular prop bet made by thousands. “Will a horse win all three Triple Crown races?” Payouts are quite large but from history results it is not an impossible feat. Prop bets are a highly searched topic with very little competition, adding some prop bet content to your sites could add a nice boost to your traffic and hopefully a return at the sportsbooks.

Other popular keywords include odds and picks, but as we have discussed before getting to the top page of a keyword like “Kentucky derby odds” can be very hard. Going after a high rank with a key phrase like “Kentucky derby horse odds” will be much easier. Finding those easy key phases that also come with large traffic followings is hard but we will have more in the articles to come in the weekly addition of Sports Affiliating Weekly.
