5/5/23 - Derby Weekend 2023

Slew,

Forty-six years ago, on May 7, 1977, we celebrated your Kentucky Derby win! That race was your destiny and there was no stopping you. You had speed, heart and courage.

You went to race in Heaven the same day as your triumphant Derby win, 25 years later on May 7, 2002.

Your bloodline continues to impact the sport at the highest level and once again, a number of your progeny will compete in the Kentucky Derby this year as well as the Kentucky Oaks.

We are so very proud of you, and we miss you every day.

We know you loved to race and loved to be in front.

Happy Derby Day! You always deserve your roses.

God bless you, Slew!

We love you always.

Karen and Mickey
