Smarty Jones
Smarty Jones remained undefeated as he won the 130th Kentucky Derby (GI) with a stalking trip under Stewart Elliott, earning a $5 million bonus from Oaklawn Park for sweeping the Rebel, Arkansas Derby (GII) and Kentucky Derby.
Lion Heart
Lion Heart ran a very game race to finish second in Kentucky Derby 130, just 2 3/4 lengths behind winner Smarty Jones. Lion Heart had the lead for the first mile, only to relinquish it at the top of the stretch to the eventual winner.
Imperialism
Imperialism closed from far back with a big move down the middle of the homestretch to run third in the Kentucky Derby, finishing about seven lengths behind Smarty Jones.
