LOUISVILLE, Ky. — On Wednesday, Churchill Downs unveiled the official Kentucky Derby 152 mint julep glass and "Art of the Kentucky Derby" design.

Both were designed by Kentucky-native Grayson Reynolds, who is the first artist to design both iconic traditions.

This year’s glass features three horses racing at different strides surrounded by roses as a nod to the garland draped over all Derby winners. The names of every official Kentucky Derby champion – from Aristides in 1875 to Sovereignty in 2025 – wraps around the back of the glass.
