🏇 Biggest longshot to ever win? Most successful starting gate? Best finish for a female jockey? Here are the answers to all of those Kentucky Derby questions and more.

4. Horses get just one crack at the Kentucky Derby, but that's not the case for jockeys. Eddie Arcaro and Bill Hartack have each won the Derby five times, sharing the record for most victories by a jockey.

The record for most wins in the Derby by a trainer is six. That's held by Ben Jones, who won six times between the years of 1938 and 1952, and Bob Baffert, who won his first Derby in 1997.
