Welcome to the most glamorous two minutes in sports! We’re diving headfirst into the Kentucky Derby—from the thunderous excitement of the race to the real secrets behind horse betting and Triple Crown glory. In this episode, we break down what really happens behind the scenes once the races end (spoiler: the biggest money isn’t made in the winner’s circle). Plus, we spotlight legendary jockey Michelle Payne, who shattered glass ceilings at 40 mph. Grab your mint julep and saddle up—this is the Kentucky Derby like you’ve never heard it before.
