Attention Collectors - Pre-Sale Going On Now:
Own one of the Rarest Kentucky Derby Bottles on Earth (only 300 available)!
For the fifth consecutive year, Louisville, Kentucky-based Stoneware & Co. will offer a limited number of signed Woodford Reserve Kentucky Derby 151 bottles to benefit the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation (TRF). This year’s signed collector’s edition will feature signatures from last year’s Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks winning trainer, Kenny McPeek, and jockey, Brian Hernandez Jr.
Lexington trainer and bloodstock agent Kenny McPeek has amassed nearly 2,100 career wins, including the 2002 Belmont Stakes, 2020 Preakness Stakes and the 2024 Kentucky Derby. By winning the 150thKentucky Derby in a three-horse photo finish with the 18-1 underdog Mystik Dan and the Kentucky Oaks with Thorpedo Anna, McPeek’s achievement marked the first time since 1952 – and only the third time in history -- that a trainer swept both prestigious races in the same year. The 2024 Kentucky Derby win also made McPeek one of only five living trainers who have won all three Triple Crown races.
In 2024, Louisiana-born Hernandez became the ninth jockey in history to win both the Kentucky Oaks and the Kentucky Derby in the same year. The Eclipse Award-winning jockey has nearly 2,600 career wins, including the 2012 Breeders’ Cup Classic and the 2024 Breeders’ Cup Distaff.
TRF Executive Director Maggie Sweet stated, “The TRF is dedicated to providing dignified lifetime care for retired Thoroughbreds and welcomes the support of bourbon lovers everywhere! We are so grateful for the continued commitment from Stoneware & Co., as well as the generosity of Kenny and Brian who are donating their names and precious time to participate.”
Bottles may also be picked up at Stoneware & Co., 731 Brent Street, Louisville, KY 40204 during regular business hours after May 1, 2025.
