“American Triple Crown”
While the Kentucky Derby is known as the "Most Exciting Two Minutes in Sports," today, its identity as the first leg of the American Triple Crown wasn't forged in gold from the start. In the early days, the Kentucky Derby was just one of several prestigious races, and it wasn't until 1919, when a tireless colt named Sir Barton swept the Derby, the Preakness, and the Belmont in rapid succession—that the sporting world realized they were witnessing a feat of super-equine proportions.
The term "Triple Crown" didn't even enter the common vocabulary until the 1930s, meaning the Kentucky Derby spent its adolescence as a solo star before being cast as the ultimate curtain-raiser to the American Triple Crown.
As the series gained its legendary status, the pressure on Churchill Downs intensified; the Kentucky Derby became the "gatekeeper" of history. Since the three races are packed into a grueling five-week span, winning under the Twin Spires is the only way a horse can even begin the quest for immortality by winning the American Triple Crown. This high-stakes reality has transformed the Derby into a pressure cooker where only thirteen elite Thoroughbreds, including the likes of Secretariat and American Pharoah, have managed to keep the dream alive past the first Saturday in May.
Today, the Kentucky Derby stands as the most vital jewel in the American Triple Crown, representing the hope and heartbreak that defines the sport. Every year, twenty horses enter the gate with visions of grandeur, but the history of the Triple Crown teaches us that most will find their ambitions wilted like a discarded garland of roses by the time they reach the finish line. It remains the ultimate test of speed and stamina, a race that doesn't just crown a winner for the day, but identifies the only athlete capable of chasing a permanent seat at the table of legends. Won’t you join us this Saturday, May 2nd to see if Renegade, Further Ado, or Commandment have what it takes to win the elusive Kentucky Derby & the American Triple Crown?!

“Location is deceiving on the outside but do not sleep on this place! The work that was put into this place is unbelievable! Bravo! Drinks were fabulous, selection of wines and bourbons were great. Prices were very reasonable for this unique experience. My husband checked out the bourbon and I had a Mame old fashioned (yum!). Small bites also good. Would go back for the blue cheese crostini alone! Will definitely be back!”

Yelp Review
“Came here for my birthday and everyone loved it! The whole place is stunning and definitely my favorite speakeasy I've been to! They do have a dress code but my friends and I all dressed up in 1920s style clothing. The drinks are delicious, especially their espresso martini! It was busy so it took a while to get our drinks. The live music was great and very on brand. Also it wasn't super loud so we could still converse and hear eachother. All of my friends kept saying how they couldn't wait to go back!”
