Currently, I for one never experienced attending the Kentucky Derby, I get pleasure from watched this race on TV, it starts this year on April 29 and runs through May 2nd. The seating remain where the racing enthusiast exhibits their wealth, as well as obtaining the best seats in the house. Not really my cup of tea, it's somewhat akin to being bored stiff watching, the King of England play Polo. And, the lady's as well, they’re prancing around with their best dresses and hats, hats, hats, the bigger the hat the better and the complete ordeal is candidly a fashion show. This is reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland, falling down, down, down and entering into an alternative crazy bizarre world.
All joking aside, this is an event of a lifetime, populace travel from all over the globe to see this splendid horse race. You can still get tickets in the millionaire’s row, the turf club, the Triple Crown room, clubhouse and grandstands, Ops, the Triple Crown room is sold out already, and so are the famous Infield Finish Line areas. Wonder how much those tickets cost?
From my version concerning the Derby, they have a fixation which is called "Derby Experience," this includes concierge services so their clients are supported outside Church Downs; they will help all the member of your private party; organize museum tours, golfing, and parties just to name a few. I sure can bet, no pun intended, which the hotel prices, during this occasion of the year, escalate to outrages rates.
The Kentucky Derby is America’s oldest thorough-breed horse race. The first race was in 1864. This area is known as the Bluegrass Region, and many of the winning horses were raised and bred in this location. Furthermore, the amazing occurrence of history for me to learn about who founded this Derby, okay, I am open the envelope and the winner is… Mr. Lewis, from the Louis and Clark expedition, yes that’s same Lewis. Church Hill was the name of Lewis Clark Jr's relatives. That really surprised me, as well as Lewis Sr. organized and created the Louisville Jockey Club. Now this is a grand piece of history.
I love going to the quarter horse races, I like the lag time between each race to study the farms and the jockeys. How many races have they won and just working out the figures, coming early to go down and visit the horses, and talk to them? But, thoroughbreds and buggy races are not for me. But, I sure do like going to the local horse races.
The Kentucky Derby simply allows horses that happen to be three-years old. The horse that wins this extraordinary race, are called winners of the 'Triple Crown.' Just imagine how much this level of horse cost, in the millions. The purse is enormous and this race is also known as the "Run for the Roses," coverlet of roses is awarded to the Derby winner every year.
