SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (AP) — Three-time Kentucky Derby-winning jockey Calvin Borel and horses Housebuster, Invasor, Lure, McDynamo and Tuscalee have been elected to the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame.

Borel, Housebuster, Invasor and Lure were selected in the contemporary category, and McDynamo and Tuscalee were chosen by the Museum’s Steeplechase Review Committee, the Hall of Fame said Friday. They will be inducted into the Hall of Fame on Aug. 9 at the Fasig-Tipton sales pavilion.

The 46-year-old Borel has won 5,012 races and has purse earnings of $120,859,986 in a career that began in 1983. He’s the only jockey to win the Kentucky Derby three times in a four-year span, accomplishing the feat with Street Sense (2007), Mine That Bird (2009), and Super Saver (2010).
