 International Star gallops past the twin spires on Wednesday morning |
Wednesday morning was sunny and not as chilly at Churchill Downs and the track was fast after the renovation break. Mostly Kentucky Derby horses came out today for their special private workout session at 8:30 after the break and I saw all of the top 24 points horses except El Kabeir, Mr. Z, and Bold Conquest. Below are photos for 19 Derby horses from this morning on the track or schooling in the paddock. Full barn notes for today are available here.
