Inside the Kentucky Derby — Eric Wood, Coolmore, and Kenny McPeek

Send us a text

Derby Day may be in the rearview, but the stories (and the laughs) are still fresh.
In Episode 5, The Andy Beshear Podcast takes you on location at Churchill Downs for our biggest and boldest episode yet.

Trainer Kenny McPeek joins us to reflect on his unforgettable 2024 Oaks-Derby double and the history-making moments that made headlines. Then, Charlie O'Connor of Coolmore America gives us a peek behind the curtain into the world of breeding, sales, and how champions are made long before they ever see the starting gate.

Next up, we switch gears with former NFL pro and Louisville native Eric Wood, who shares his passion for Kentucky traditions and what Derby week means beyond the track.

Finally, Churchill Downs GM Mike Ziegler joins Andy and John for a little friendly competition. Let’s just say our Derby trivia skills… need some work.

Whether you're a racing insider or just love the magic of the first Saturday in May, this Derby Special is packed with unforgettable moments, real conversations, and plenty of Kentucky heart.
