The pageantry, the thrill, the celebrities, and the amazing race horses all team together to make Kentucky Derby Day one of the most exciting sporting events of the year. Whether you're there for the party, or there to make some cash on your favorite race horse, the Derby always promises to be a great race, full of surprises, drama, and big money.

The Kentucky Derby is also the first event of the "Triple Crown", the three stellar horse racing contests that take place in the Spring. The Kentucky Derby, The Preakness Stakes, and finally the Belmont Stakes comprise the complete event, and if one horse wins all three, it's deemed the "Triple Crown Winner". In addition to going down in history as one of only a handful of horses to win the Triple Crown, the winner receives a HUGE cash bonus, and lucky bettors who place their wagers accordingly can walk away with some big cash of their own.

Perhaps the most favorite all-time winner of the Kentucky Derby and subsequent Triple Crown honors was Secretariat, a race horse from the 1970's who stunned crowds with his complete and utter domination of the field. Secretariat would often win races by multiple lenghts, embarassing opponents and hoofing away at lightning speed to victory. After Secretariat's death, an autopsy revealed part of this horse's amazing secret: his heart was physically larger than the average horse. A physically larger heart alone, however is not always enough to win the Triple Crown: it takes good training, a solid jockey, and intelligence; things that Secretariat was successfully able to put together.

So, when the horses are off for this year's Kentucky Derby, remember that you're taking part in one of America's time honored horse racing event, that could spawn a new Triple Crown winner and another horse racing legend.
