He won 39.24 to win. Is that on a 1 dollar bet? How does all of that work.

Travis Kelce Looks Dapper in Fedora at 150th Annual Kentucky Derby

Travis Kelce looked like a complete gentleman at the 150th annual Kentucky Derby races, dressing up in a crisp pinstripe suit.

Kelce, 34, attended the Churchill Downs annual equestrian race on Saturday, May 4, looking dapper in a double-breasted pinstripe suit with a dark tie and pocket square. He wore a platinum watch and earrings and topped off the look with a dark fedora that held a light blue feather on the side.

After walking the red carpet, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end made it to his seat to watch the jockeys take their places on the starting line. Per a video shared by the official Kentucky Derby Instagram account, Kelce got excited when his first race bet came to fruition.

Kelce enthusiastically jumped up and down screaming when he saw how his horse did on Saturday. “That’s how we do it,” he added. “Woo!”

While Kelce appeared at the Kentucky Derby solo, he’s recently been enjoying quality time with girlfriend Taylor Swift during his NFL offseason. Swift, 34, and Kelce have been dating since summer 2023, taking time to visit one another between his football games and her Eras Tour concerts. After a brief hiatus, Swift’s tour resumes on May 9 in Paris.

Nah SL rider made contact and took Forever Youngs back legs out/out of his stride and made contact and leaned on him all the way to the finish line. Jockey even pushed at one point.

Exciting race, though.

All odds are based on a $2 bet

Nearly a 20-1 odds at post time

You guys see the replay? The Japanese jockey was bumping the other horse all the way down the home stretch. Then right before the finish line, he grabs the other horse to slow it down. I’m assuming that’s not allowed so Why did they let it slide?

I'd have to imagine that incident is going to be addressed down the road after an audit. It certainly appears highly to be unsanctioned behavior.

Also, with the money and influence at stake on that silly race the stewards are going to be forced to do something I'm sure. Doesn't help the jockey or owner that the proof is on Twitter with 40k views as of this post.

We noticed the bumping all the way down the home stretch, but didn't see this. That's illegal as all hell. We were waiting for something after the race, but didn't hear anything, but we didn't wait very long, either.

Was the most exciting Derby I can ever remember!

That was a great race.
