The Kentucky Derby prides itself on being the longest-running sporting event in the United States. But amid the mint juleps, the extravagant hats and sartorial finery, there is a history behind the Run for the Roses that’s hidden from the limelight.

For the 145th running of the Kentucky Derby, "Arrive Early, Leave Late" takes a different turn, as Beto Durán (@DuranSports) sits down with national correspondent Kurtis Lee (@kurtisalee) to talk about his Column One piece on the little known story of the African American jockeys who rode to victory in the early days of Churchill Downs.
