Still better than the 2012 Summer Olympics Logo.

I like the Derby one, the Oaks...not so much. Too pink.

Oaks is sharp, Derby sucks...

Oaks makes me want to kill things.

Top heavy with the bolded 137...

The horse head should be on the top... hell even if they just reversed the horse head and where it says Kentucky Derby it would improve it.

I think they should do away with the date and the location? Come on do they really need to even say it?

Makes it cluttered, everyone knows where it is.

I like the other one.

Wish there were just the slightest bit of movement in the horsie head so it didn't look like a chess piece but sure... it's fine.

It, at least, has a sense of balance.

It would look even cooler with Blockateil (sp) perched on top...

I guess the 126 lbs each Derby horse will carry includes a giant salad bowl on their head.

The Oaks logo seems to remind me of a promo for the Boris Spasky-Bobby Fischer chess match years ago.

It reminded me of something different:


The Derby logo is a mess of what appears to be an assemblage of clipart. The horse neck looks like a two lane highway. The reused rose in a horseshoe still looks like a swirling toilet bowl just after flushing. The chopped off 137 is bad, the date format is weird.
Otherwise, it's a nice logo.

Edit: I knew I had this somewhere:

Looks like last year with different coloration and a slight change in the arrangement.

Awful. My wife does better graphic work for the invites for our annual derby party and she is a biologist.
