There will be no Kentucky Derby today By Mike Watson Kentucky has been the center of the universe on the first Saturday in May for decades more than a century. Rarely has the 'most exciting two minutes in sports' been delayed or canceled. Not since 1945 have we experienced this no-horse first Saturday. Well, in keeping with the horse racing spirit, here are a few items on the importance of the 'sport of kings' from right here in Adair County. Our ancestors loved their horses and, of course, the horse and mule made the world go round. Travel was by horse power alone for so long. Adair County has been known as a center of horse breeding since the earliest settlers. The Kentucky Gazette, premier newspaper from the earliest days of the Commonwealth, published at Lexington, often spent at least twenty-five percent of the column inches of any given issue to horse sales, horse races, lost horses, stolen horses, and stray horses found.
