LOUISVILLE, Ky. (LEX 18)-  Amazon’s audiobook company "Audible" is supporting their namesake horse in the Derby.

If the 13-2 horse takes home the prize, listeners will be able to download a free copy of the book "American Pharoah" for free.

Amazon bought the audiobooks app of the same name in 2008 for $300 million. The horse Audible is not named for the Amazon subsidiary. (It’s a reference to an audible in football, when the quarterback changes the planned play.)

Audible is running in the fifth position.  Learn more here.
