Dubbed the “Run for the Roses,” the Derby features three-year-old thoroughbreds racing a distance of 1.25 miles. Today, some 150,000 spectators gather annually on the first Saturday in May at Churchill Downs for the Kentucky Derby, sometimes referred to as “the greatest two minutes in sports.” Besides placing bets on horses, Derby fans are famous for drinking mint juleps, singing “Old Kentucky Home” and wearing flamboyant hats. The Kentucky Derby was started by Meriwether Lewis Clark Jr., grandson of explorer William Clark, of Lewis and Clark Expedition fame. Clark, who was inspired by horse races he’d seen in Europe, raised the money to build Churchill Downs on land donated by his uncles. Bourbon County Farms/Horses winning Kentucky Derby: • Ben Brush owned by Runnymede Farm won the 1896 Kentucky Derby • Agile owned by Runnymede Farm won the 1905 Kentucky Derby • Gallant Fox owned by Claiborne Farms won the 1930 Kentucky Derby & Triple Crown • Johnstown owned by Claiborne Farms won the 1939 Kentucky Derby • Count Fleet owned by Stoner Creek Stud won the 1943 Kentucky Derby • Count Turf owned by Runnymede Farm won the 1951 Kentucky Derby • Dust Commander owned by Golden Chance Farm won the 1970 Kentucky Derby • Riva Ridge owned by Claiborne Farms won the 1972 Kentucky Derby • Secretariat owned by Claiborne Farms won the 1973 Kentucky Derby & Triple Crown • Gato Del Sol owned by Stone Farm won the 1982 Kentucky Derby • Swale owned by Claiborne Farms won the 1984 Kentucky Derby • Sunday Silence owned by Stone Farm won the 1989 Kentucky Derby • Unbridled owned by Claiborne Farms won the 1990 Kentucky Derby Bourbon County history is a substantial part of Kentucky Derby history! KayDenniston Bourbon County Extension Agent for Family & Consumer Science 1 Exploring Kentucky Heritage of the “Mint Julep” Henry Clay introduced the “Mint Julep” to Washington, D.C. in 1850. By some accounts, the bar at Willard Hotel still uses Clay’s recipe to this day. Though mint juleps have likelyn been enjoyed at the Kentucky Derby since the beginning – legend has it that founder Meriwether Lewis lark, Jr. planted mint for cocktails when he founded the track in 1875 – the cocktail wasn’t declared the “official” Derby drink until 1938. Each year almost 120,000 juleps re served at Churchill Downs over the two-day period of Kentucky Oaks and the Kentucky Derby. Exploring Kentucky Heritage of the “Derby Hats” During the 1800’s, most people thought that gambling and drinking went hand in hand so the Kentucky Derby racetrack was not a place for women; however, Colonel Meriwether Lewis Clark Jr was inspired by trips to London’s Epsom Derby and Paris’ Grand Prix. He went on a campaign throughout Louisville to convince his target clientele that the new race track was in fact a place for the upper - class. Clark loaded up a wagon full of high society women and they went door-to-door telling their friends that they were having a picnic at the racetrack. This was his attempt to break down the stigma The media speculated that if the track could be transformed into a place of fashion, all the investment that went into the world class venue would pay off And it did! More than 10,000 spectators attended the first Kentucky Derby in 1875 and the New York Times reported that, “the grand stand was thronged by a brilliant assemblage of ladies and gentlemen”. While fashion (thanks to Col. Clark) always played a central role in the Derby, the flamboyant type hats that have become routine accessory did not make their debut until the 1960’s. Devotion to Derby hats dropped off a bit in the 70’s and 80’s but picked up again in the 90’s. The royal wedding in 2011 showcased a parade of elaborate hats and fascinators, which has carried over to the Derby. Colonel Meriwether Lewis Clark, Jr would be proud of the fashion at the Kentucky Derby. May Etiquette Tips Save the Dates May 2 Final Beginning Quilting Class When to start eating?

Oxmoor: The Bullitt House in Jefferson County, Kentucky Samuel W. Thomas For 200 years, the 1,000-acre Oxmoor tract, now bounded by the Watterson Expressway and divided by Interstate Highway 64 near Louisville, has been owned by the Bullitt family. At the core of :t this commercial and farm property is the homestead-a rambling residence surrounded by outbuildings. It is rare that a property and its buildings remain for two centuries, let alone in one family. It is even more remarkable that much of Oxmoor's history is recorded and extant in family papers. Alexander Scott Bullitt (1761/2-1816) was the first Bullitt to set foot on the hillsides along Beargrass Creek, near the pioneer fortification known as A'Sturgus Station.1 His son, William Christian Bullitt (1793-1877), inherited the property, and his grandson, Thomas Walker Bullitt (1838-1910), wrote out his recollections of "Life on a Farm in Kentucky Before the War" in 1906.
