Parimutuel betting began in 1872.

Since segregation in public accommodations was practiced there, the Andersons were invited to be guests at the home of Mae Street Kidd, a noted female African-American Kentucky politician. Both before and after the race, Anderson was accused of entering his horse in the race strictly for publicity purposes for himself, especially after Burnt Cork finished last. Those making the statements believed this tarnished the name and history of the race.

He built a national profile as an emerging dark horse in the race for the chairmanship with the backing of former DNC chairman Howard Dean, former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley, Indiana senator Joe Donnelly, and North Dakota senator Heidi Heitkamp. Buttigieg "campaigned on the idea that the aging Democratic Party needed to empower its millennial members". Former U.S. secretary of labor Tom Perez and U.S. representative Keith Ellison quickly emerged as the favored candidates of a majority of DNC members.

After being restrained by Murphy in fifth place, Roaring Lion moved up on the outside in the straight and in the closing stages he engaged in a sustained struggle with Saxon Warrior. He crossed the line a neck in front but appeared to have slightly hampered his rival when hanging to the right in the finals strides. The racecourse stewards held an immediate inquiry, but allowed the result to stand. After the race Murphy, who received four-day suspension for "careless riding" on the winner, commented "I was on the best horse in the race, that’s the bottom line".

Sherwood had wanted to wait until the following year to run the horse in the race but was over-ruled by Hemmings and Aspell. Starting at odds of 25/1, he was close behind the leaders for most of the way before taking the lead five fences from the finish when The Druid's Nephew fell. He went three lengths clear at the last and held on to win by one and three quarter lengths from the French-bred Saint Are, with Monbeg Dude six lengths back in third. The winning time of 8 minutes 56.8 seconds was the second fastest in the race's history.

Despite such a rough start to his American campaign Catire Bello would try again with a run in the Tropical Park Derby. Despite breaking better this time he simply didn't have it in him a higher dose of Lasix and fast fractions led to an even bigger dud then seen in the Florida Derby finishing 9th and only managing to defeat 1 horse in the race. His final bid to make it into the Kentucky Derby would be the Derby Trial. Like in the Florida Derby he would not go to the lead and stay towards the back running past tired horses to finish 4th by over 11 lengths.

Red Splash showed early promise as a steeplechaser and won four times over fences in the 1923/1924 National Hunt season including a race at Cheltenham Racecourse in November. In the spring, he was entered in the inaugural Cheltenham Gold Cup in which, as a five-year-old, he carried nine pounds fewer than his older opponents. Withington had reservations about running the horse in the race as Red Splash had sustained an injury which interrupted his preparation. The likely favourite, Alcazar, was withdrawn on the morning of the race, and his jockey, Dick Rees, was engaged to take the ride on Red Splash.

O'Brien who was winning the race for a record fourteenth time and trained the first four finishers said "We're delighted with that. He's a lovely staying type of horse and they went an honest gallop. We thought he might be a St Leger horse and be one to look forward to as a Cup horse next year, and the horses behind him are still babies, so they're there to look forward to as well" while Heffernan commented "He's a tough horse to come back from a mile and six furlongs last week, but the Curragh suited him... This horse has guts, and, if you have guts, you don't always have to be on the best horse in the race".

The New Sporting Magazine expressed the view that The Saddler was by far the best horse in the race, and that Chorister's victory had been almost entirely due to Day's superior jockeyship. Two days later, over the same course and distance, Chorister was matched against Liverpool, a horse who had finished unplaced in the St Leger, in the Gascoigne Stakes. The race was run at a slow pace before the horses accelerated entering the straight and after a strongly contested finish the two colts crossed the line together with the judge declaring dead heat. Lord Cleveland made an offer to divide the stakes, but Liverpool's owner insisted on a run-off later that afternoon.

At Doncaster on 15 September, Milan started the 13/8 favourite for the St Leger against nine opponents over fourteen and a half furlongs. Milan was held up at the rear of the field before making steady progress but appeared to be boxed in on the rail before being switched to the outside in the straight. He took the lead a furlong from the finish and pulled clear of the field with what the BBC described as an "incredible burst of speed" to win by five lengths from Demophilos and Mr Combustible. Kinane, winning the race at his first attempt at the age of forty-two, described Milan as "the class horse in the race".

Much of the credit for the win was given to his trainer Harry Wragg who had taken "endless trouble" with the colt's preparation, and ridden him in most of his exercise. Darius was then moved up in distance to contest the Derby over one and a half miles at Epsom on 2 June. He was regarded as "the best horse in the race" and was the subject of heavy betting support which made him the 9/2 favourite on the day before the event, but his odds lengthened on the day and he started at 7/1. Darius ran well for much of the way, before finishing third of the twenty-two runners, beaten two lengths and a neck by Never Say Die and Arabian Night.

The race was won by St Giles, the 3/1 favourite, with Margrave, who was not given a hard race by his jockey, finishing in fourth place. The Sporting Magazine's correspondent was convinced that Margrave ("by far the best horse in the race") had been deliberately held back to facilitate the success of his stable companion. Margrave did not run again until 18 September when he was sent to Doncaster Racecourse for the St Leger Stakes. Ridden by Jem Robinson, he was made the 8/1 fourth choice in the betting in a field of seventeen colts and fillies, his odds having lengthened in the week before the race after reports that he had injured a leg and was unlikely to take part.

Spaniel, despite being the smallest horse in the race, looked very impressive in the paddock before the race and when cantering to the start he moved exceptionally well "as though... he trod on air", despite the extremely hard ground. After several false starts and delays the race got under way, and after a fast start, almost all the jockeys restrained their mounts, and the pace was extremely slow. The gallop was so gentle that jockeys could be seen "gossiping to each other" and Wheatley later commented that Spaniel could have sustained such a pace "right away to London". The lack of a testing gallop meant that almost all of the runners were still in contention turning into the straight and the race devolved into a sprint over the last quarter mile.

Brown, commenting that she carried eight pounds more than any other horse in the race, viewed the race as one of her best and said, "I think she's one of the all-time greats." On August 26, Lady Eli entered the Ballston Spa Stakes in what would be her final appearance at Saratoga (it had been previously announced that she would be sold as a broodmare prospect at the Keeneland November sales.) After racing on the rail behind the early pace set by Dickinson, Lady Eli waited until a small hole opened that allowed her to get racing room on the outside. Lady Eli then quickly drew clear of the field, winning comfortably by lengths. "She really is a horse of a lifetime", said Brown Lady Eli made her final start in the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf at Del Mar on November 4.

My Tent Or Yours began his third season in the Grade I Fighting Fifth Hurdle at Newcastle Racecourse on 30 November and started 8/11 favourite ahead of Melodic Rendezvous who had won the Elite Hurdle three weeks earlier. The gelding fought against McCoy' attempts to restrain him in the early stages, but moved into the lead two hurdles out and won by three lengths from the mare Cockney Sparrow. McCoy described the victory as "a good performance, a good starting point" but pointed out that the gelding was much the best horse in the race on previous form and was expected to win easily. On 26 December at Kempton Park Racecourse My Tent Or Yours faced The New One in a race for the Grade I Christmas Hurdle. Since beating My Tent Or Yours at Aintree in 2012, The New One had won six races including the Baring Bingham Novices' Hurdle and the International Hurdle and was favoured in the betting at 5/6 while My Tent Or Yours starting at 11/8 in a field of six.
