Rich Strike, Shocks the World as the 2022 Kentucky Derby Winner

Behind the Scenes with Rich Strike and his groomer Jerry Dixon Jr, who won the 2022 Kentucky Derby, racing at 80:1 odds!

Rich Strike is the second-biggest longshot to have won the Kentucky Derby after Donerail (91:1 odds) in 1913. He was not in the field until Ethereal Road was scratched the day before, with Rich Strike being added from the also-eligible list for the Derby.

Owner Richard Dawson found out about the change just 30 seconds before the deadline.
