Golden Tempo wins Kentucky Derby, Cherie DeVaux first female trainer
Golden Tempo, a 23-1 long shot ridden by Jose L. Ortiz, surged from last to win the 152nd Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs. Cherie DeVaux, 44, became the first woman to train a Kentucky Derby winner. Golden Tempo edged Renegade, ridden by Irad Ortiz, in a photo finish. DeVaux's milestone underscores the growing presence of women at the highest levels of horse racing and now sends Golden Tempo into the Triple Crown spotlight.
What a finish - Golden Tempo wins the Kentucky Derby

nestorelias.bsky.social13What's most impressive is when you realize where he was at the start of the video.
beckett929.bsky.social7on my YTTV, I had zero commentary... I could hear live audio from the track announcer and ambient sound, but the booth wasn't coming in at all... now I want all sports to just be like that lol
Sooner95 (Call me Jay if you must...)5Unbelievable. That was one for the ages.
Man, Renegade and whoever was riden by the jockey with the blue cap were bodychecking each other all the way down till the final 16th.
HERSTORY. Cherie DeVaux becomes the first female trainer of a Kentucky Derby winner with horse Golden Tempo.
Blue Dot36Cherie seems like a very decent woman. When I watched her interview with Donna Brothers, Cherie turned all the attention back on to Donna and praised all of her contributions to horse racing. It is time for women to lead this country.
NANCY OSHEA 🇺🇸 🇺🇦 🇬🇱🌈👩⚖️19Golden Tempo finished dead last in every race leading up to today. At the gate, a 24-1 long-shot. Someone made lots of money today!
therealjlacy.bsky.social15Crazy race. Her horse was dead last. Then mid pack with no room to negotiate, so went to outside and somehow had after burners to take out everyone. What a race
D.G11And they say women don't belong in certain places.
Noel Dickover10What a crazy run. Golden Tempo went from the back clear onto win in the last leg.
Katers8Is this the first time jockey brothers came in first and second in the Kentucky Derby?
Brian the Bold (I love Calvin & Hobbes)4Rich people at fellatory events like this don't impress me. I don't care what sex they are.
Jon Sekelsky4Donald Trump was in Louisville to congratulate the first female trainer to win the Kentucky Derby.
Diaspora20224I’d say she prepared her pony in exactly the correct manner 👍🏽 Helluva finish too!! #RidersUp
Ms. Hart2not as cool as you make it out to be, the poor horses
RIO LINDA MEX 🇺🇸🇲🇽🇨🇦🦍2White white culture, just short of Plantation cosplay.
EattGreedy2Legit question: do you think horses enjoy this activity? Seems like it could be more fun than sitting in a pasture all day
Mark Brazill 🇨🇦🇲🇽🇺🇦🇻🇪2I have to assume Republicans are outraged.
Golden Tempo has won the Kentucky Derby at odds of 23-1 to make Cherie DeVaux the first woman to train the winner of the opening leg of the Triple Crown. n.pr/4cVTfv3
Thomas K.17Cool. Let’s not do horse racing anymore now.
Linda Morgan Davis4Congratulations to Cherie and Golden Tempo!
hedlin2A$0.50 Trifecta paid $5,625.39 which is just crazy.
BigBlueCat2Golden Tempo has a woman trainer, woman owner & a Puerto Rican jockey. trump has ordered a DOJ investigation into possible DEI violations.
Kat Denise2Horse racing 🏇 is CRUEL to horses. For money. If you ignore this fact you’re just greedy and sadistic…iow’s evil.
Y. Mudpuppy2Every stable I've ever set foot in was run by a woman. The equestrian field is profoundly female. Except for certain, extremely cruel sports, such as sprint races for baby thoroughbreds. Most of these horses fatally break down before age 3. Horses are not adults until age 7.
