The 2012 Kentucky Derby is set to start at approximately 6:24 p.m. ET, with live television coverage presented by NBC. NBC will have plenty of pre-race coverage, as they hit the airwaves from Churchill Downs at 4:00 p.m. ET on both TV and via live stream.

Bodemeister is still the odds-on favorite to win, but according to CBS.com's panel of experts, Union Rags is the favorite to win the 138th annual run for the roses. Florida's Trinniberg is still a longshot to win.
