Description:
As the home of the Kentucky Derby, Louisville’s Churchill Downs teems with historical significance. Yet a trip to the gargantuan, twin-spired track doesn’t evoke the misty-eyed nostalgia of a place like Saratoga; no venue which can accommodate 160,000 spectators on a single day, as Churchill does on the first Saturday of each May, is ever going to fit neatly on a postcard.
