Kentucky Derby Has Been Postponed
Much like the Masters in golf, the biggest event in Horse Racing is the Kentucky Derby. It was originally scheduled to go as planned on May 2nd, but upon further review, officials of the event have postponed it to September 5th.
The Louisiana Derby is a major prep race for the Kentucky Derby and that race is scheduled to go on as planned on March 21st. The race will be run with no spectators in the stands. The race offers the winner 100 points toward qualifying for the Kentucky Derby. Also, the rest of the racing schedule at the Fair Grounds will not be affected as all races will be run without fans in the stands.
