The 149th Kentucky Derby runs Saturday at Churchill Downs in Louisville, KY, for insanely expensive 3-year-old thoroughbred horses. Forte was installed Monday afternoon as the 3-1 favorite for this 1.25 mile race. Scheduled for a 3:57 p.m. PDT post time, it will be televised by NBC and Peacock at Pahrump’s favorite bars. The purse is a whopping $3 million. The VFW Post plans a hat contest, raffle, games, and pulled pork sandwiches to mark the occasion.
