First weekend in May, Churchill Downs Racecourse, Louisville, Kentucky.
Early in the morning, horse racing fans from all over the world and the United States, as well as countless gamblers eager to get rich overnight, came from all directions dressed in costumes and flooded into this famous racecourse.
Everyone who came to this racecourse seemed extremely excited, and everyone’s eyes were full of expectations.
When they walked into the racecourse, people were talking enthusiastically, and the focus of the conversation was naturally their favorite horse racing.
At this time, Churchill Downs Park, the top racecourse in the United States, can be said to be full of banners, huge crowds of people, flowers blooming everywhere, and it is very lively!
Today is the top event in the American horse racing world, the first stop of the American Triple Crown, the day the Kentucky Derby is held, and one of the most important days of the year in the American horse racing world.
The American Triple Crown is the top thoroughbred horse race in the United States. It consists of three races, namely the 2000-meter Kentucky Derby, the 1900-meter Preakness Bid, and the 2400-meter Belmont Bid.
These three events are all first-level horse racing events, and the time is very close to each other. It is a very big test for all team members, including horse racing, jockeys, and even trainers.
Thoroughbred horses participating in the American Triple Crown can become the American Triple Crown horse as long as they can win these three top events within just five weeks from May to June!
The annual American Triple Crown horse race is often the American horse king of that year. This is the highest honor in the American horse racing industry and the highest goal pursued by all horse owners and thoroughbred horse racing!
Horses that are eligible to participate in the American Triple Crown must be purebred horses, and they must be three-year-old stallions with excellent past records before they are eligible to set foot on the track.
In the history of American horse racing, it can be said that there are very few horses that can win the Triple Crown. There are only a dozen horses in total. Each Triple Crown horse is famous and priceless!
The most famous Triple Crown horse among them is the proud horse Secretariat, nicknamed ‘Bigred’.
In 1973, with a huge advantage that no other horse had before, it claimed the title of American Triple Crown horse racing in one fell swoop? It was also crowned the American Horse King that year!
Today, its direct descendant, Jueying, will embark on a journey at Churchill Downs Park Racecourse, compete in the Kentucky Derby, and then conquer the American Triple Crown, creating an unprecedented great legend!
The Kentucky Derby, founded in 1875, is the second oldest horse race in the United States. It has never been interrupted for more than a hundred years, even during the Great Depression of the last century.
The venue for this famous event is the Churchill Downs Park Racecourse in Louisville, Kentucky, known as the "horse capital of the world". It has not changed for more than a hundred years.
As one of the most prestigious international first-level events in the United States, the Kentucky Derby is a 2,000-meter race and is limited to three-year-old thoroughbred stallions. The first prize is often as high as millions of dollars.
Since horse racing is often closely associated with betting, the millions of dollars in prize money received by champion horses is just a drop in the bucket compared to the huge amount of betting on and off the track, and is not worth mentioning at all.
After more than a hundred years of development, today's Kentucky Derby has developed into a global grand event, and the participating horses have also changed from all over the United States to from all over the world.
With the gradual expansion of its influence, the number of spectators and attention attracted by the Kentucky Derby every year has far exceeded that of another famous horse race in Kentucky, the Breeders' Cup.
In the field of horse racing, the attendance rate of the Kentucky Derby ranks first among all events in North America? It is no exaggeration to say that the Kentucky Derby is the "Spring Festival Gala" of the American horse racing industry!
As the first stop of the American Triple Crown, the Kentucky Derby has strict restrictions on horse racing conditions, making the Kentucky Derby champion the highest pursuit of all horse racing practitioners.
If that horse can win the Kentucky Derby, its value will skyrocket. If it goes one step further and successfully wins the American Triple Crown, it will be crowned the American Horse of the Year and become the strongest horse of the year!
In addition, the Kentucky Derby has another romantic name, or nickname, which is the ‘Run for the Roses’
As a tradition, the thoroughbred horse that wins the Kentucky Derby championship will be draped in a tapestry of 564 red roses and receive cheers and applause from the audience.
In addition to horse racing, the Kentucky Derby is also a grand carnival party and the highest-level social occasion in the United States.
Every year during Derby Week, celebrities from all over the world come to watch the game, especially big stars and figures, as well as dignitaries and super-rich people from various countries. They can be seen everywhere in Churchill Downs Park!
For example, in 2007, Queen Elizabeth of England visited the United States and went to watch this event live.
Every year when the Kentucky Derby comes, Louisville's hotels and restaurants are not only extremely expensive, but also overcrowded. Even if they have money, they can't book a room. Some people simply drive here in their RVs to watch the game.
In Louisville at this time, luxury cars with foreign license plates were everywhere in the city, and parks of all sizes were filled with RVs from all over the United States.
Although the main race of the Kentucky Derby only lasts two minutes, the entire Louisville will celebrate it for two weeks, which the locals call the Kentucky Derby Festival
On the day before Horse Racing Day, all schools in Louisville will be closed.
During these two weeks, every school and every community in the city had its own small parades and parties, and there were more than seventy large-scale celebrations.
The largest celebrations include the largest fireworks display in the United States, a large balloon competition between hot air balloonists, etc., which are exciting.
In addition, the Kentucky Derby is also a huge T stage!
After entering the horse racing festival, women from all over the United States, young and old, all dressed up in fancy dresses, wearing different styles and colorful customized wedding dresses, compete here for beauty.
The men who come here to watch the game are no less generous. They are also wearing the best dresses and various exaggerated hats. They are all full of sultry and releasing male hormones to their heart's content!
Of course, as the owner of a horse that is popular to win the championship, Ye Tian's dress is relatively conservative, otherwise it would be a bit undignified. After all, he is going to put the championship rose carpet on Jueying at the end.
Just as people were pouring into the Churchill Downs Racecourse, Ye Tian and David, who were wearing custom-made dresses, as well as Cole and others who were accompanying them for protection, also appeared at the horse owner's aisle.
Seeing their group appear, there was a commotion at the scene. Almost everyone at the entrance of the park looked at them, and many people even shouted loudly.
"Good morning, Mr. Steven, what do you think of today's Kentucky Derby? Can 'bigred' win the Kentucky Derby?"
"Steven, can your 'bigred' beat 'Justice'? The owner of Justice has made a statement and wants to give 'bigred' some color in today's race. You know, Justice has not tasted yet. What a defeat!”
With these shouts, more people looked at Ye Tian and others at the scene. Everyone was excited and it was not a big deal to watch the excitement!
Hearing these questions, Ye Tian just smiled disdainfully, and then said loudly:
"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, I'm Steven, I'm glad to see you all here, if you buy Jueying Shengying today, then I want to congratulate you, you will make a fortune A lot of extra money!
If you bet on other horse racing, then it is very regrettable that you are destined to lose a lot of money and taste the bitterness of failure. I can definitely say that the Kentucky Derby champion is Jueying's bag!
No matter 'Justice' or 'Moon Devil', no matter how outstanding their record is, they can only choose to surrender on the Kentucky Derby track. For them, being able to compete with Jueying is a great privilege. glory! ”
Before I finished speaking, the atmosphere inside and outside the entrance to Churchill Downs Park was completely boiling!
"Wow! It's a great honor to be able to compete with Jueying! This is too arrogant! This guy Steven doesn't take other horse racing seriously at all!"
"I'll go! It's just like what was said in yesterday's news report. Steven is so arrogant that he's almost boundless. But it's no wonder. Jueying's record since his debut is like a **** descending from heaven!"
While people were exclaiming and talking a lot, several horse owners and their entourage who happened to arrive here, their faces were as black as the bottom of a pot, and their teeth were clenching.
While gritting their teeth, these horse owners and super-rich people from all over the world and the United States looked at Ye Tian with eyes full of reluctance, envy and jealousy!
Without exception, they really want Jueying to be their own horse, even if only part of the rights belong to them.
In that case, this year's American Triple Crown will be in the bag, and as one of the horse owners, I can also be on the highest podium in the American horse racing world!
It's a pity that a god-like horse like Jueying actually belongs to that **** **** Steven and has nothing to do with him at all!
While talking, Ye Tian and the others had walked into the horse owner's passage and walked straight to the horse owner's box.
