The 148th running of the Kentucky Derby is in the books at Churchill Downs and the winner took everyone by surprise.
Longshot Rich Strike crossed the finish line first in the Run for the Roses on Saturday, overtaking 4-1 favorite Epicenter and Zandon in the final stretch for a stunning 80-1 upset. Trainer Eric Reed said jockey Sonny Leon gave the "greatest ride that I've ever seen."
"Today shows you that anything is possible in horse racing and anything is possible in Kentucky," said Kentucky governor Andy Beshear from the winner's circle.
There were a total of 14 races that began Saturday morning leading up to the Run for the Roses.
