On the weekend of May 5th Tina and I cashed in a trip we had purchased at our foundations main fund raising event the previous year. This was our first and most likely last visit to the Kentucky Derby, but it was a nice bucket list item. Churchill Downs is an amazing facility and Tina and I had a great time visiting Louisville.
The finishing turn of a grass race coming down the line.
The most beautiful girls at the Derby.
Time sequenced horse race around the 4th turn on the dirt track.
This is the start of the actual Derby race with the horses being led in. Because the Derby is a long race the guys have to immediately remove the starting gate and rake out the track before the horses get back around the track.
If you wonder why there's no pics of the Derby horses during the race, good luck getting pics when everybody in the stands are up and yelling and waving there hands up and down.
