Overhead view of Rich Strike winning Kentucky Derby is absolutely insane

Posted May 18, 2022
Rich Strike was an alternate for the 148th Kentucky Derby. Sure enough, it got the call after Ethereal Road was scratched the day before the race. With 80-1 odds, Rich Strike pulled off the second biggest upset in history of “The Race for the Roses.” You may have seen the regular television angle of the victory, but it’s got nothing on this overhead view.
