Kentucky Derby<\/h1>

Churchill Downs Racetrack, Louisville, Kentucky, USA<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Kentucky Derby is the most popular race in the US. It\u2019s a Grade 1 competition held on the first weekend of May each year. It\u2019s also nicknamed \u2018The Run for the Roses\u2019 as the winners of the race are covered up with a blanket of flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entire race lasts for about 2 minutes which is the reason why it\u2019s also known as \u2018The Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports\u2019.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n

While the Kentucky Derby is far from the most valuable horse race event, it\u2019s hard to think of more famous horse races than this. It\u2019s a three-year-olds only race and the US equivalent of the Epsom Derby. American bettors gambled an estimated $133,000,000 on the race in 2015 alone. That\u2019s why the Kentucky Derby tops our chart as the biggest horse race on Earth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy an amazing weekend of parties, people watching, fashion and Derby tickets for thrilling horse races. Get up close and personal to the action, explore beautiful Louisville, KY and spend a day on the Ohio river.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
