Winning the Kentucky Derby takes a combination of a special horse, a skillful jockey, and a fistful of luck. All of these were exemplified in the winner of the Kentucky Derby, Street Sense, and his jockey, Calvin Borel. In the picture below, you can see Street Sense on the far right (his jockey is wearing the yellow and green silks) entering the final turn at Churchill Downs. Borel successfully navigated his horse through all of that traffic before turning Street Sense loose and winning by two and one-half lengths.
