I didn’t get many selfies last weekend but made sure to get one with @InsideBackside ! How lucky were we to be photographing the Derby 😀

A hot topic following the May 4 @KentuckyDerby (G1) concerns a rough stretch run, specifically, the repeated bumping between runner-up #SierraLeone and third-place #ForeverYoung. Read more: https://t.co/GYpyi9DUVM @BH_Bking #TC2024

A #KentuckyDerby150 to remember 🌹

Following a dominant performance by Thorpedo Anna (Fast Anna) in Friday's GI Longines Kentucky Oaks, trainer @KennyMcPeek and jockey Brian Hernandez, Jr. teamed up once again to win a thrilling edition of the GI Kentucky Derby with MYSTIK DAN (Goldencents) 🏆 In a three-way photo finish, Mystik Dan won it by a nose over Sierra Leone, with Forever Young a nose back in third.

McPeek became the third trainer in history to complete the Oaks-Derby double, and the first since 1952, while Hernandez became the first jockey since 2009 to sweep the Oaks-Derby. And another history tidbit: it was the first three-horse #KyDerby photo finish since 1947.

Will forever cherish this moment. People thought I was nuts for working. But, I couldn't imagine experiencing it any other way than just like this. @jareth16's small gesture to me 🖤

💯 days until the 149th @kentuckyderby! My favorite shots tend to be head on in the first turn, where the horses are all bunched together and running right at you! Always in awe of this view! 🏇✨

Flightline moments ago as he took his last look over the @keeneland premises before being escorted into the van that will be taking him to @LanesEndFarms to begin his second career.

Jockey Flavien Prat takes a peak between his legs to see how far back the @breederscup Classic competition was as Flightline wins America's richest horse race to remain undefeated and cement Horse of the Year honors. #BC22 @insidebackside photo
