Always Dreaming, the dark brown colt trained by Todd Pletcher, went off as the 9-2 favorite and brought home the roses (and some small change) for all of the fans who bet him. The win gives Pletcher his second Derby win, as well as the second win for his rider, John Velazquez. The race over a sloppy track, was clocked at a leisurely 2:03.59. Lookin at Lee finished second, with Battle of Midway coming in third. Photos © Gail Kamenish
