Kentucky Derby Winning Horse Golden Tempo’s Post-Racing Home Confirmed
2026 Kentucky Derby champion Golden Tempo has safely returned to trainer Cherie DeVaux’s barn at Keeneland the morning after his thrilling victory at Churchill Downs. The 23-1 longshot, who rallied dramatically from last to edge favorite Renegade by a neck, made history by handing DeVaux the distinction of becoming the first female trainer to win the Run for the Roses. Owned by Phipps Stable and St. Elias Stable, the Curlin c**t is now resting comfortably at the Lexington facility ahead of potential future campaigns, including a possible Belmont Stakes bid. The homecoming marks a triumphant close to Derby weekend for the connections.
