2021 Kentucky Derby complete order of finish and payoffs
Bob Baffert did not expect a lot from 12-1 shot Medina Spirit on Saturday.
Instead, the Hall of Fame trainer ended up with his record-setting seventh career victory in the 147th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville.
For the second year in a row, a Bob Baffert trainee won the Run for the Roses in wire-to-wire fashion. Jockey John Velazquez took Authentic right to the front and went on to win the 2020 Kentucky Derby last September. He did the same with Medina Spirit on Saturday.
Medina Spirit defeated Mandaloun by a half-length. Hot Rod Charlie was another half-length back in third. Essential Quality, the race favorite, finished fourth.
Medina Spirit paid $26.20 to win, $12.00 to place and $7.60 to show.
Second-place Mandaloun paid $23.00 and $13.40.
Third-place Hot Rod Charlie paid $5.20.
