I'll Have Another (15/1) made history when becoming the first horse to win the Kentucky Derby from stall 19 at Churchill Downs this evening, giving jockey Mario Gutierrez a first Grade One win.

Doug O'Neill's charge won the Santa Anita Derby on his last start and showed a tremendous attitude to reel-in Bodemeister who made a bold bid to make all, running the five fastest splits in the history of the race.

Dullahan was third while the Aidan O'Brien trained Daddy Long Legs, who raced in third early on, faded quick as they approached the end of the back straight and finished a disappointing last of the twenty runners under Colm O'Donoghue.
