The Nashville Derby (formerly known as the Dueling Grounds Derby) is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for three years olds, over a distance of one and five-sixteenths miles on the turf held annually in late August or early September at Kentucky Downs racetrack in Franklin, Kentucky during their short turf meeting.
With a purse of $2.5 million for its 2024 running—including $1 million for Kentucky-bred runners—the Nashville Derby is the richest race to be run at Kentucky Downs, as well as the second richest turf race in the United States behind the Breeders' Cup Turf.[1]
