Kentucky Derby Results: Super Saver and Calvin Borel Win (VIDEO)

There was never a doubt.  Calvin Borel dominated the field on Saturday, mucking through the mud on another flawless ride to win his third Kentucky Derby in four years.

Borel crossed the finish line atop Super Saver and punched the air with his right fist.

The jockey gave trainer Todd Pletcher his first Kentucky Derby win after 24 previous attempts failed.

The ride was strangely similar to the one he experienced last year aboard 50-1 shot Mine That Bird, except this time he and Super Saver had lower odds and were never in last place.
