In a historic moment for horse racing, Cherie DeVaux became the first female trainer to win the Kentucky Derby with her horse Golden Tempo, which triumphed in the 152nd edition of the race at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. Under the skilled guidance of jockey Jose Ortiz, Golden Tempo secured victory by a neck, narrowly defeating the pre-race favorite, Renegade. This win is particularly significant as it marks DeVaux's first Derby horse, making her the first female trainer to achieve this since 2021. DeVaux, who is married to Thoroughbred bloodstock agent David Ingordo, has a stepdaughter named Reagan Ingordo. Reagan expressed her pride in her stepmother's achievement during a post-event interview, stating, “I’m proud of you, I really am.” Additionally, several horses have been named in honor of Reagan, including Reagan’s Honor, showcasing the close bond between them.
