LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Churchill Downs has revealed the official Mint Julep Glass and "Art of the Kentucky Derby" ahead of the 152nd running of the race, both designed by Kentucky native Grayson Reynolds.
Since its inception in 1938, Churchill Downs said the Kentucky Derby Mint Julep Glass has grown in popularity and is often considered the leading Derby collectible. This year's glass portrays three horses surrounded by roses as a nod to the garland draped over all Derby winners.
The names of every official Derby champion, from Aristides in 1875 to Sovereignty in 2025, wrap around the back of the glass.
Reynolds' artwork shows five thoroughbreds charging from the starting gate beneath the Twin Spires, with red roses bursting from the track to capture the emotion of the Run for the Roses. Rey
