Louisville, KY has been the home to the premiere North-American horse race for well over a century and the tradition continues in 2013.  This year the Kentucky Derby will be held on Saturday, May 4th.  It is also important to note that the Kentucky Oaks will take place on Friday, May 3 as a precursor to the Kentucky Derby.  Doesn't it seem hard to believe that we are just a few months away from the running of the first leg of the horse racing triple crown?

There will much anticipation for the 2013 edition of the Kentucky Derby after the run by I'll Have Another in 2012.  I'll Have Another swept through the first 2 legs of the triple crown but had to pull out of the Belmont Stakes at the last minute.  It seemed hard to think that we wouldn't have a triple crown in 2012 but fate directed us down another path.  Our desires for a triple crown winner were teased to the point of aggravation.  I can't speak for everyone but I know myself and others close to me were very disappointed in the busted triple crown opportunity.  I know that year to year the Derby and the triple crown races share no common thread but I can't help but get excited for another prospective year for the triple crown.  It would seem only fitting after Detroit Tigers third baseman Miguel Carbera won baseball's triple crown for the first time since 1967.

The 138th Running of the Kentucky Derby will take place on May 5, 2012. There is no other event in the world that offers more exciting moments than the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs.
