Golden Tempo stormed from the very back of the pack to triumph in the 152nd Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on Saturday, giving trainer Cherie DeVaux a landmark victory as the first woman to saddle the winner of America’s most famous horse race.Sent off at 24-1, Golden Tempo broke slowly under Jose Ortiz and trailed the 18-horse field ‌before threading through traffic and unleashing a late charge to claim the “Run for the Roses” on a fast track in cool, cloudy conditions in Louisville.Renegade, the 5-1 co-favourite ridden by Ortiz’s brother Irad Ortiz Jnr, finished second, while 70-1 long-shot Ocelli was third in front of a crowd of 150,415.DeVaux, nearly speechless after making history, said she hoped the victory would resonate beyond racing.“I don’t even have any words right now,” DeVaux said in a post-race interview. “I’m glad that I could be a representative of all women everywhere. We ⁠can do anything we set our minds to,” she said.“I’m just so happy for Golden Tempo and Jose, who did a masterful job at ‌getting him there, because he was so far out of it. He has had so much faith in this horse.”
