That's a question we wanted to know the answer for and thought everyone in our community would like to know. Horse Racing Simulation, in partnership with the NTRA, created a virtual simulation containing the past 20 Kentucky Derby winners. We're talking about Derby winners such as Smarty Jones, the first undefeated race horse to win the Kentucky Derby since Seattle Slew; Big Brown, another undefeated horse going into the Kentucky Derby; Real Quiet who was barely beaten in the Belmont to be denied his Triple Crown quest; Thunder Gulch who won the Derby at 25-1 with jockey Gary Stevens;Barbaro, who was drawing away late in the race to win the Derby by 6 lengths; Monarchos, who is the only horse besides Secretariat to win the Kentucky Derby in under 2 minutes.

Other contenders include the likes of Street Sense, who was the first Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner to actually go on and win the Kentucky Derby; Rhinestone, whose racing career was cut short when he was retired 5 days after his Derby victory; Giacomo, the second-longest shot ever to win the Derby at 50-1; Funnycide, the gelding drew a lot of fans during his brief ...
... period of fame; Silver Charm, who stalked the pace and was able to hold off the late rally by Capt. Bodgit to hold on for victory in his Derby; and several other horses including Super Saver, last year's winner who actually gave trainer Todd Pletcher his first Derby win ever.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could build your own champion races, matching up the greatest such as Secretariat and Man o’ War?  Wouldn’t it be incredible to bring the champion horses from the 30s and 40s and race them against the top horses of the 70s and 80s?
