Believe it or not, the Kentucky Derby is not held at the Kentucky Horse Park. It is held at Churchill Downs in Louisville. The track is cared for every day. But today, it was very muddy! At the race two years ago, the track was even muddier than it is today. That must have been hard for the horses.
When a horse walks out onto the track before a race, the owners like to take a lap with their horse. So on that race day two years ago, all of the ladies and gentlemen in the beautiful clothes were walking in mud! It was so much fun learning all about this racetrack.
