  1. 'A day for the ages,' as Orb rises to a dominating Kentucky Derby win

    "Amazing! A day for the ages," was the way Mike Pons put it about an hour after Orb, the son of the onetime Harford County based stallion Malibu Moon, stayed off a blistering early pace and out of trouble on a sloppy track and then blew away the rest of field to capture the 139th running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville Saturday.

  3. Orb brings home Kentucky Derby win for Janney

    Stuart Janney III slipped into Churchill Downs virtually unnoticed Saturday afternoon, a few hours after landing in Lexington and driving to the track with his wife, two children and son-in-law.

  4. Orb captures 139th Kentucky Derby

    Claude R. &ldquo;Shug&rdquo; McGaughey is a man who looks like the embodiment of the nickname that is all anybody calls him by. Short and unassuming, he said this week he made an effort to enjoy the run-up to the Kentucky Derby, a race he has, like any trainer, dreamed of winning.

  9. 2013 Kentucky Derby picks and analysis from Liam Durbin

    The new points system for qualifying horses for the Kentucky Derby appears to have served its purpose. The race is full of horses with the preferred pedigree and running style to handle the distance. While this has served to restore some purity to the race, it has also made the race tougher to handicap because many of the horses now excluded by the points system were easy toss-outs for handicappers. This field of 20 is very even. A case could be made for every one of them to win.
