The Honor of "Riders Up" and a Historic Kentucky Derby Win

Being asked to call "riders up" at a major racing event is a monumental honor, reminiscent of the prestigious roles held by icons such as Nicholas, Player, and Tom Watson at significant sports ceremonies. The opportunity to make this call in front of a global audience is both a joy and a privilege, highlighting the significance of this role in the world of horse racing.

Discussing the recent performance at the Kentucky Derby, the victory by Golden Tempo was notable not just for the odds of 23 to 1, but also for the exceptional execution by jockey Jose, who navigated from the last to the first with a strategic and strong finish. This race was not only a testament to the horse's capabilities and Jose's skill but also marked a groundbreaking achievement for Cherie Deveau, the first woman to ever win the Kentucky Derby. Congratulations to Cherie Deveau and her team, as well as jockey Jose and Golden Tempo, for their outstanding success in one of the most prestigious events in horse racing.
