No. 2 comes up a lot when discussing the Kentucky Derby. Horserace covers a distance of two kilometers, and it is the second oldest sporting event in the country. Course record set by Secretariat in 1973, just under two minutes (with each other and 1:59 2/5ths) is. No horse since Apollo in 1882 at the age of 2 have won the race without racing. But many fans called it "the most exciting two minutes in sports" would agree that there is nothing secondary about the Derby is nicknamed.
The Bluegrass area (the same area which is the name of the music), Kentucky for the production of fine racehorses and was known throughout the nineteenth century due to the rich areas. Grandson of William Clark, Meriwether Lewis who, with the Louisiana Purchase Map - - England and France visiting the race considered a race in 1872, when Col. Meriwether Lewis Clark, Jr. was hatched. Inspired by his travels, he formed Louisville Jockey Club when he returned home to Kentucky, and began raising money for a racetrack - out of town - soon known as Churchill Downs.
The first race was run in 1875, the oldest continuously held sporting event in America is. After a shaky start, the race was taken by a syndicate of businessmen on the Colonel Matt Winn of Louisville in 1902 under the direction of, and quickly became the most successful in the U.S., thoroughbred horse racing.
Race became part of the fabric of American culture. Pimlico, Maryland, and Elmont, New York in the Belmont Stakes, Preakness Stakes race, it forms the Triple Crown of American Thoroughbred racing. Only 11 horses have won the Triple Crown, and none since 1978. Over the years the Derby mint juleps consumption growth (a bourbon, mint and sugar syrup together with drinks), the different traditions of fairy, has given rise to-mutuel betting, to state parties (where it is hard to see that there is not much else to run), throwing Derby Day parties (if you can not find the actual race), the chocolate and nut Derby (sold by the Melrose Inn) pie, and wearing elaborate hats.
Derby "gonzo journalism," the site of the invention of journalism effective, meaningful, conflicts, and a 1970 tongue-in-cheek title proudly counterfactual style "author Hunter S. Thompson in Kentucky Magazine piece was pioneered by the Derby is decadent and depraved." Most of all, there "My Old Kentucky Home," the Stephen Foster tune played every year by the University of Louisville grandstands horses and parade through the hometown crowd proud and loud cry, as the song goes marching band. Derby is so important that it closed the state's largest festival, the Kentucky Derby Festival, which began in 1956 and fills the former Pegasus parade, balloon race and a marathon with steamer for the whole two weeks, as Derby Race moves as well as the largest fireworks display in the U.S..
