Travis Kelce reveals he was a nose away from winning $100,000 at the Kentucky Derby

Travis Kelce is venting over his losses at this year’s Kentucky Derby.

The Kansas City Chiefs player, 34, revealed he “almost won” $100,000 at the annual Louisville horse racing event over the weekend on the latest episode of his podcast, New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, released on Wednesday, May 8.

“I was a nose away from winning that thing, dude,” Travis told his brother and co-host Jason Kelce. He shared that he put money on Number 11 to win and “a little bit” on Number 2 in the race at Churchill Downs.

“I was a beginner, I didn’t get too far into that,” Travis explained. “I just wanted to put the money that I brought in there and throw it down on like one horse, and just get pumped if that thing was even close.

And sure enough, coming around that corner, you see that thing come up.”
