It was one year ago when Rich Strike pulled off the second-most unlikely win in the history of the race. Entering the derby at 80-1 odds, it was thought of as inconceivable that Rich Strike would win, but that’s exactly what happened. It’s important to note that no horse in this year’s field has been set with odds as long as Rich Strike:
