The road to the Kentucky Derby is never simple, but for Robert Low, owner of standout contender Renegade, it’s a journey built on decades of passion, precision, and belief. Fresh off a major win at the Arkansas Derby, Renegade has quickly emerged as one of the leading names heading into racing’s biggest stage, with momentum and attention building around a potential Triple Crown run. Low describes Derby day at Oaklawn as nothing short of electric, complete with tradition, celebration, and even a private flight bringing nearly 50 guests to share in the moment.

Race over to either watch or listen to the full conversation with Robert Low here:

At the center of it all is Primatara, Low’s 400-acre horse farm where Renegade’s journey began. It’s here that young horses are developed before moving on to advanced training in Ocala, Florida, under a carefully managed regimen that balances rest, conditioning, and instinct-based decisions from his training team. Low’s connection to the sport runs deeper than business, it’s personal, rooted in a lifelong love of horses and now reflected in everything from his racing operation to his continued support of education through his Skyline High School scholarship foundation.

As the Derby approaches, anticipation continues to build not just around Renegade’s performance, but around the community rallying behind him. Low plans to be part of the ceremonial walkover at Churchill Downs, a moment he describes as both nerve-wracking and deeply meaningful. With 150 supporters traveling via chartered 737 from Prime Trucking and a growing wave of regional pride behind the horse, Renegade’s story has become bigger than the track itself. For Low, it’s a culmination of business, family, and passion converging on racing’s biggest stage.
