The Kentucky Derby is held every year on the first Saturday in May at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. The race is a 1 1/4-mile race for 3-year-old Thoroughbred horses. The winner of the Kentucky Derby is awarded the coveted roses trophy and a share of the purse, which is typically over $3 million.
