Kentucky is a 1938 American drama sports film with Loretta Young, Richard Greene, and Walter Brennan.

During the Civil War, Thad Goodwin Sr. (Charles Waldron) of Elmtree Farm, a local horse breeder, resists Capt.

He is killed by Dillon, and his youngest son, Peter (Bobs Watson), cries when the soldiers ride away with the horses.

75 years later, in 1938, Peter (Walter Brennan), now a crotchety old man, still resides on Elmtree Farm and raises horses with his niece Sally (Loretta Young).

At her uncle's insistence, she reluctantly selects "Blue Grass" instead of the favorite, "Postman", and Jack trains him for the Derby.
