Kentucky Derby – Qualifying for the 135th Run for the Roses

Three important Kentucky Derby preps at tracks across the country on Saturday will decide the fate of many 3-year-olds hoping to make the 135th Run for the Roses.

It’s strictly a money situation. For example, Imperial Council must upset probable odds-on favorite I Want Revenge in the $750,000 Wood Memorial at Aqueduct to guarantee a trip to Louisville.

135th Kentucky Derby – Risen Star May Yield a Contender

Preps for the 135th Kentucky Derby are off and running. There are many — some dating back before the world wars. Others are relative new like the $200,000 Risen Star Stakes that will be staged for the 36th time at Fair Grounds.

Navajo won the inaugural when the race was known as the Louisiana Derby Trial Stakes in 1973 – the year Secretariat won the Triple Crown.
