Yes, the first Kentucky Derby included fillies among its participating horses. There were 13 colts and two fillies. The two chestnut fillies were Ascension and Gold Mine.
Ascension placed 10th. She was ridden by Billy Lakeland, the only white rider among a total of 15 jockeys.
Gold Mine finished last. She was ridden by Stradford.
The first Kentucky Derby wasn't held on the first Saturday of any month. Instead, it was held in the middle of the month. The specific date was May 17, 1875.
Isaac Murphy was not only the first African American jockey to win the Kentucky Derby three times, he was the first jockey of any race to accomplish this feat. Murphy was inducted into the United States Racing Hall of Fame in 1955.
Seabiscuit [May 23, 1933 - May 17, 1947] never won any Kentucky Derby. He was named 'Horse of the Year' in 1938. But that was for his performance in races other than the Derby. It also was for his victory of November 1, 1938 over War Admiral [1934 - 1959], the Triple Crown winner of the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont and Preakness Stakes in the previous year.

Noble's Promise finished 5th in the 2010 Kentucky Derby. Since the Derby distributes purse money to the top 5 finishers, the owners of Noble's Promise took home $60,000 for his effort. The purse distribution for the Derby changed in 2005, when prior to that only the top 4 Derby finishers received any purse money.
