Four went on to win the Kentucky Derby: Tim Tam (1958), Spectacular Bid (1979), Thunder Gulch (1995) and Orb (2013). Miscellaneous: After a one-year experiment in 2010 at six weeks out of the Kentucky Derby, the Florida Derby is positioned five weeks before the first Saturday in May, a spot first tried in 2005. Prior to that, it was historically positioned seven or eight weeks before Derby … Seven of the last 14 Kentucky Derby winners were based during the winter in South Florida. Six were stabled at Palm Meadows Training Center: Funny Cide (2003), Barbaro (2006), Street Sense (2007), Big Brown (2008), Super Saver (2010) and Animal Kingdom (2011). Orb (2013) was based at Payson Park.
