What the Nation is saying about the 2001 Kentucky Derby (G1)...

It’s hard to believe it has been ten years since Monarchos exploded past the field early in the Churchill Downs stretch to win the 127th Kentucky Derby going away. Ridden by Jorge Chavez, the grey flash finished 4 ¾ lengths in front of runner-up Invisible Ink, while big favorite Point Given finished...Read More

  • BrianZipse · While I agree with your thoughts on only two-races before the Derby, Monarchos was not one of them. Winless at two, he raced three times in Florida in 2001, before running 2nd in the Wood Memorial on his way to Louisville. · 762 days ago ·

Going into this Derby you knew that it was going to be won by a deep closer as the projected early pace on paper appeared to be blistering. Monarchos was a logical win pick but most gratified by the Invisible Ink finish for second. This kicked off a series of second place bombs coming out of the Pletcher barn in Derby (Bluegrass Cat) and susequent BC races (Friendly Island)
By Grahame L. Jones -- May 06, 2001 Secretariat can rest easy. His record is still secure, but barely. On the 28th anniversary of the chestnut colt’s brilliant run in 1973, Monarchos ran the race of his life Saturday to win the 127th Kentucky Derby in the second-fastest time and in front of the seco...Read More
