More from history-making trainer Cherie DeVaux: "It really is an honor to be able to be that person for other women or other little girls to look up to. You can dream big, and you can pivot. You can come from one place and make yourself a part of history." paulickreport.com/news/triple-cr…

Huge congratulations to trainer @reredevaux as she becomes the first woman to train a @KentuckyDerby winner!

Truly wonderful to see a family like the Phipps who have been involved in the game for so long and probably have created some of the finest female bloodlines in history finally get their Derby...and with a history making trainer who is just one of the best in the game...male or female....period!!!

From chasing it to living it, this is what it means for Jose Ortiz! 🏆

Cherie DeVaux worked as an assistant for over a decade, learning under some of the top trainers before starting her own barn in 2018. Her horses have won her over $33M in career earnings, and she is now the first female trainer to win the Kentucky Derby.
