Fifteen months after his death, Keith finally got there. Keith’s Dream Walkin’ Farms co-owns Render Judgment, who will run out of the No. 15 post Saturday, May 3, in the 151st running of the Kentucky Derby. The bay colt, trained by Kenny McPeek and ridden by Julien Leparoux, has 12-1 odds to win the annual Run for the Roses.

A horse named Render Judgment, partially owned by Toby Keith’s Dream Walkin’ Farms, is in the field for the iconic race at Churchill Downs. The horse’s inclusion marks the fulfillment of a 30-year dream for Keith, who died from stomach cancer on Feb. 5, 2024.
