Warriors’ Kevon Looney makes appearance at Churchill Downs for Kentucky Derby

Saturday marked the 150th running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, the legendary horse racing track in Louisville, Kentucky. When the Kentucky Derby rolls around, the stands at Churchill Downs are filled with an All-Star lineup of celebrities and athletes.

On Saturday, a member of the Golden State Warriors made an appearance at Churchill Downs for The Derby. Warriors veteran center Kevon Looney was in Louisville for The Derby weekend.

The 150th running of the race came down to the wire with a thrilling photo finish involving three horses. Underdog horse Mystik Dan barely edged one of the favorites, Sierra Leone, by a nose to win. Forever Young ran third by a nose as well.

In a two weeks, Mystik Dan will have the chance to compete for the second leg of horse-racing’s Triple Crown in Baltimore. The Preakness Stakes is held at Pimlico Race Course. The final jewel of the Triple Crown is the Belmont Stakes on June 8 at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.
