If there is any day on the calendar for FanDuel Racing to be up and working, it is Kentucky Derby day.

But four hours before the 151st running at Churchill Downs, the popular online sportsbook acknowledged an outage that left users furious.

The glitch, according to FanDuel Racing, appeared to be affected users’ financial tools within the FanDuel app and TVG, the company’s horse racing-specific platform.

“We’re currently experiencing intermittent issues affecting deposits, account balances, and wagers on TVG and FanDuel Racing,” the company posted on X.

“Our team is actively working to resolve this as quickly as possible.

“We appreciate your patience and will provide updates as soon as they’re available.”

Users on social media posted the error message they saw from FanDuel.

The message warned:

“While most wagers will process normally, certain wagers may be impacted due to rules and system conditions.”

The Derby will go off at 6:57 ET, leaving a couple of hours for FanDuel to correct the issue and give its customers time to place their bets.
