The Kentucky Derby post position draw was held April 29 at Churchill Downs. In the traditional “pill pull,†horses’ entry blanks were pulled simultaneously with a numbered pill to determine each horse’s stall at the starting gate. Conducting the pill- pull were Ben Huffman, director, racing, and racing secretary; and Dan Bork, assistant racing secretary and stakes coordinator. John Asher, Churchill Downs vice president, racing communications, served as the emcee.
