Isaac Burns Murphy was born into slavery on January 6, 1861, in Clark County, Kentucky. When it comes to winning, Isaac Murphy is considered to be the G.O.A.T. (Greatest of All Time).With a 44% winning percentage, his record is unmatched and has never been approached in the world of horse racing.

Isaac was the first 3-time winner of the Kentucky Derby and was the first jockey to be inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in its inaugural year in 1955.
