Aristides, who was the first of the <a href=\"https:\/\/kentuckyderbybettingsites.net\/previous-winners\/\">previous Kentucky Derby winners <\/a>that year, won $2,850.<\/p>\n<p>Other notable increases through the years have been in 1954, when the Kentucky Derby purse increased to $100,000. Then in 1995 it hit the $1,000,000 mark.<\/p>\n<p>A decade later in 2005, the prize fund jumped up to $2,000,000. Then, in 2019, Churchill Downs boosted it again to $3,000,000. The purse stayed at this figure until now with the rise up to $5,000,000.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Notable Kentucky Derby Purse Changes Over The Years<br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>$2,850 &#8211; First Ever Purse<\/li>\n<li>1954 &#8211;\u00a0 $100,000 Purse<\/li>\n<li>1995 &#8211; $1,000,000 Purse<\/li>\n<li>2005 &#8211; $2,000,000 Purse<\/li>\n<li>2019 &#8211; $3,000,000 Purse<\/li>\n<li>2024 &#8211; $5,000,000 Purse<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Kentucky Oaks Purse Also Boosted In 2024\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>In tandem with the Kentucky Derby, its sister race &#8211; the Kentucky Oaks &#8211; also received a cash injection in 2024.

The Preakness Stakes, which is the second leg of the Triple Crown, and the Belmont Stakes both currently carry a purse of $2,000,000.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico will be run on Saturday, May 17.
