The 1902 Kentucky Derby was the 28th running of the Kentucky Derby. The race took place on May 3, 1902.[1] This marked the first year in which the race was held on its now-traditional day of Saturday; all prior races had taken place anywhere from Monday through Friday.[2] Alan-a-Dale won by a nose after going lame while he was well in front of the other horses; jockey Jimmy Winkfield held him together as the colt barely won. Inventor finished second. The Rival was third, 1⁄2 length behind Inventor.[3] Winkfield's win in the 1902 Kentucky Derby was the last time that an African American jockey rode a winning horse in the Kentucky Derby.[4]
