Santa Anita Derby winner I'll Have Another has won the 138th running of the Kentucky Derby.
If you can't wait, the official website has the video already.
YouTube video:
The winner was ridden by Mario Gutierrez in the jockey's first Derby. He had the perfect trip, catching pace-setting Bodemeister before hitting the wire. Dullahan was third. Favorite Union Rags had problems early on and finished sixth.
The time was 2:01.83, way off Secretariat's track record. "They" don't even talk about that record anymore; it has stood for almost 40 years.
Champion racehorse Lava Man has actually been the winner's lead pony.
Yesterday was the day of the "distaff" Kentucky Oaks. Believe You Can won the 138th running:
