The 1904 Kentucky Derby was the 30th running of the Kentucky Derby. The race took place on May 2, 1904.[1] This year in Derby history is notable for several important firsts. Elwood, the winning horse, was owned by Lasca Durnell which marked the first time a female owner won the Derby.[2] The winner was bred by Emma Holt Prather of Faustiana Stock Farm in Nodaway County, Missouri and was the first time a Derby winner was bred by a woman.[3] In addition, Elwood was the first winner bred in the state of Missouri and through 2020 no other winner has been bred in that state.
