How to play the Kentucky Derby winners timeline
Run for the Roses winners fill this deck: every horse won the Kentucky Derby, and a note underneath names the jockey or what made the win memorable. You're ordering the winners by the year the race was run. One Derby winner begins on the timeline with its year showing. Place each new horse in a gap among those already down. A placement that holds reveals the year; wrong ones still land the horse in its true spot but cost one of three lives.
Triple Crown winners, longshots, fillies and disqualification results all turn up. Jockeys are your best clue, but several rode Derby winners across long spans, so a familiar name narrows the window without closing it. Horses you've never heard of are the norm here, which means reading every note and thinking about which rider was in the saddle when.
Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
