"I'll Have Another" Wins Kentucky Derby

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - I'll Have Another caught Bodemeister down
the stretch and pulled away in the final furlong on Saturday to win
the Kentucky Derby.
Jockey Mario Gutierrez, riding in his first Derby, guided the
3-year-old colt ahead of Bob Baffert's Bodemeister and a late
closing Dullahan to win on a fast track.
It was trainer Doug O'Neill's first Derby victory. He had never
finished better than 13th in the Kentucky Derby with two other
horses.
I'll Have Another, the Santa Anita Derby winner, went off at
15-1 in one the deepest and evenly balanced fields in recent years.
