The Kentucky Derby
Manage episode 413734317 series 2992326
In this episode we put our focus on horses, specifically on racehorses, and specifically the Kentucky Derby. This year the first Saturday in May, May 4th, will mark the 150th running of the Kentucky Derby. It's a grade one stakes race for three-year-old thoroughbreds. And the distance is one in a quarter mile. It's run at Churchill Downs in Louisville. It's known as the Run for the Roses, stemming from the blanket of roses draped over the winner. It's also known in the United States as the most exciting 2 minutes in sports, or the fastest 2 minutes in sports because of its approximate duration. We provide a history of the Derby, its origin and key events overs 150 years.
