Mystik Dan wins 150th Kentucky Derby by a nose in the closest 3-horse photo finish since 1947

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The 150th Kentucky Derby produced one of the most dramatic finishes in its storied history — three noses at the wire.

Mystik Dan desperately fought to hang on with two challengers coming to him in the closing strides. He did, too, after a delay of several minutes while the closest three-horse photo finish since 1947 was sorted out.

I forgot to watch the Derby. After last year, I was pretty much done with watching an hour of rich ladies showing off their sun hats, followed by a 2 minute race. Sounds like I missed a good one, though. Next year.

I put watching horse racing and racing cars in the same category; boring. I'll admit, I don't understand the intricacies of either but it's too hard for me to watch a horse or car going around in a circle.
