The 152nd running of the Kentucky Derby had a thrilling finish, with Golden Tempo coming out of nowhere down the stretch to get a historic win, but there was a scary moment right before the race that forced one horse to be a late scratch and left a jockey lucky to escape without an injury.
This all happened as the horses were being led into the starting gate at Churchill Downs. Great White, who was slated to be the biggest horse in the race at around 1,370 pounds, flipped over and tossed Alex Achard to the ground.
