Miss America, Miranda Lambert at Kentucky Derby

LOUISVILLE, Kentucky (AP) — The horses and roses weren't the only famous attractions at the 138th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville.

A large crowd got peeks at the stable of famous people who walked the red carpet into the historic racetrack on Saturday. Among them were country singers Eddy Montgomery of Montgomery Gentry, Miranda Lambert, Travis Tritt, Clay Walker and Randy Owen.

Montgomery would not reveal his Derby bet. "If I tell that, it's going to be everybody's favorite," he said.

From the sports world, the lineup included New England Patriots football coach Bill Belichick, Kentucky basketball players including standout Anthony Davis, Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino, tennis players Andre Agassi and his wife, Steffi Graf, World Cup skier Lindsey Vonn, and Tennessee Titans defense end Kamerion Wimbley.

Singers included Cyndi Lauper with her two sons, Mary J. Blige, Taylor Dane and Mary Wilson of The Supremes. And from Hollywood, there were Debra Messing, Lynda Carter, Quinton Aaron, Ginnifer Goodwin, Kellan Lutz, Ice-T and comedians Fred Willard and Ron White.

Miss America Laura Kaeppler also arrived as well as actor Terry O'Quinn, noted for his role as "John Locke" in the television series "Lost."

When asked which horse he would bet on, O'Quinn replied with a question: "You tell me?"
