The 14-race card is highlighted by the 144th running of the $2,000,000 Kentucky Derby (G1) for three-year-olds going one and one-quarter miles on the main track.

Post time for the 2018 “Run for the Roses” is 6:50 P.M. (Eastern). Television coverage will be on NBCSN from 12:00-2:30 P.M. (Eastern) and on NBC from 2:30-7:30 P.M. (Eastern).
