Amen 🙏🏽
"Sovereignty" reigned at the 151st Kentucky Derby on Saturday. In a muddy mess at Churchill Downs, the three-year-old c**t surged late to edge out the favorite horse, "Journalism" – by 1½ lengths.
The win is trainer Bill Mott's second Derby victory. And Jockey Junior Alvarado, spattered with mud and glory, gave thanks to the Lord and his mount for the victory.
"First of all, thank you. I got to thank my Lord Jesus for giving me this Kentucky Derby win. It was him and Sovereignty that got me over the wire," Alvarado said.
