In 1913, Donerail won the Kentucky Derby with pre-race odds of 91-1, making him the biggest longshot winner in the race’s history. Over a century later, in 2022, a horse with 80-1 odds was crowned the winner, netting his owners a cool $3 million purse, rendering the horse’s name prophetic. This is especially amazing considering that this horse wasn’t even in the lineup 48 hours before the race, taking a spot because Ethereal Road was a late scratch. What is the (rather appropriate) name of this longshot 2022 Kentucky Derby winner?
