2024 Kentucky Derby presented by Woodford Reserve

about this race

Race Info
History

Held annually on the first Saturday in May, the Kentucky Derby is the nation’s premier race for 3-year-olds and the most famous race in the country. It is contested at 1 ¼ miles (10 furlongs) on the dirt main track at Churchill. The race was first run in 1875 and is the first leg of the Triple Crown.

The Kentucky Derby has been captured by many top racehorses and eventual leading stallions over its 140-year existence. Regret (1915), Genuine Risk (1980) and Winning Colors (1988) are the only three fillies to win the Derby.

The longest-priced winner of the race was Donerail, a 91-to-1 winner in 1913. Four horses won the race by a record 8 lengths, including Old Rosebud (1914), Johnstown (1939), Whirlaway (1941) and Assault (1946). Secretariat holds the speed record with a time of 1:59.40 in 1973. Justify is the most recent horse to win the Kentucky Derby on his way to a Triple Crown victory (2018).
