They were such a hit that the rose was adopted as the official flower of the race. In 1896, winner Ben Brush was cloaked with an arrangement of pink and white roses, marking the first time a garland of roses was presented to the Derby's victor. Sportscolumnist Bill Corum (who later became president of Churchill Downs ) gave the race the nickname "Run for the Roses" in a column he wrote in 1925. The garland of some 500 roses sewn onto a green satin background was introduced in 1932; it is still used today. The governor of Kentucky also presents the winning jockey with a bouquet of 60 long-stemmed roses wrapped in 10 yards of ribbon.

I knew the phrase referred to horse racing but quite honestly I didn't know it referred specifically to the Kentucky Derby. When I first bought 'For the Roses' I don't think I actually knew what the phrase meant. But that was....a long time ago, shall we say?
