Horse Racing

Kentucky Derby

At Churchill Downs in Louisville, you can experience “the greatest two minutes in sports,” otherwise known as the Kentucky Derby. At Lexington’s Keeneland, there’s also world class thoroughbred racing in fall and spring amid a beautiful pastoral setting. Several other tracks around the state feature fantastic live racing as well.

Check these listings to find where you’d like to check out the ponies.
