Legendary annual contest
A classic race is a prestigious horse race with long tradition, typically restricted to three-year-old thoroughbreds.
In Britain, the five classics are the Derby, the Oaks, the St.
Leger, and the One Thousand and Two Thousand Guineas.
Other countries have their own classics: The Kentucky Derby is the most famous American classic.
