There was a young lady named May
Who was taking a ride in her sleigh.
She ran out of snow,
Her sleigh wouldn't go.
Now her horse pulls an old Chevrolet!
-Unknown-
It takes a good deal of physical courage to ride a horse. This, however, I have. I get it at about forty cents a flask, and take it as required.
- Stephen Leacock
Only three horses who had never previously won a race earned their first victories at the Kentucky Derby. They were Buchanan in 1884, Sir Barton in 1919 and Brokers Tip in 1933.
