The grand daddy of them all in horse racing – The Kentucky Derby – is set to launch next Saturday, May the 1st at 5PM EST.
The Kentucky Derby contenders list is something that everyone tries to get an updated version of in the days leading up to the big race. Below is the Kentucky Derby 2010 updated contenders list (see list below video).
Also, last years Kentucky Derby was won by Mine That Bird, a New Mexico-based gelding who rallied from last to win the 135th running of the event last year. Calvin Burrell was the jockey who won atop MINE THAT BIRD last year to pull off the monumental upset. He has won 2 of the 3 last three runnings of Kentucky Derby. You can relive that below.
Here’s a video of the 2009 Kentucky Derby in which Mine That Bird came from behind for the win:
