"I'm thankful people thought enough about us that they want us to win."

Here's the Bahamas' Larry Demeritte, the first Caribbean trainer and second Black trainer since 1951 to saddle a horse in the Kentucky Derby, walking the track before the 150th running of the Derby. 🇧🇸 🐎

Larry Demeritte has trained horses for over six decades, fought cancer three times and trained West Saratoga, the last horse to be called for the 150th running of the Kentucky Derby.

Today, Demeritte became the first Black trainer in 35 years to saddle a horse at the Derby.
