In the Kentucky Derby -- and all thoroughbred races -- "win" in the horse that comes in first, "place" is the horse that finishes 2nd, and "show" is the horse that finishes 3rd.

Jockey's pay for the Kentucky Derby varies. The win, place and show riders get a percentage of whatever the owners winnings are. In the 2010 race the first place jockey grossed around $142,000. After his expenses are paid, that dropped to around $100,00, and that was before taxes were taken out. If the jockey does not win, their pay goes down dramatically. Second place received around $20,000 and third place received around $10,000. Jockeys who did not place were paid much, much less than that.
The Somernites Cruise is a car show that takes place monthly in Somerset, Kentucky between the months of April and October. It is a free show that all can attend.
Kentucky isn't the "Show me" state. Kentucky is the "bluegrass" state. Missouri is the "Show me" state.
