Solid Steps Radio

The Kentucky Derby is known as “the greatest two minutes in sports.” The Derby is the oldest American sporting event. Every year the city of Louisville, Kentucky celebrates for two weeks in preparation for a two minute horse race. Is the build up worth it? If you've ever been to the Kentucky Derby, you’d have to say it is. And the majority of the time, the intrigue is not about horses, but about the people. On this week’s show, Kurt and Chad talk to racing Hall of Famer Pat Day about how he got into horse racing, and about his meteoric rise to fame and fortune. With 8,803 career wins on some of the greatest championship horses, his favorite win was the 1992 Kentucky Derby. But was that THE defining moment in his career, and life? At the top of the horse racing world, as Rider of the Year, God showed him that success, as measured by this world, can be a dead end. (This is a repeat episode - enjoy!)
