Churchill Downs will run 3 days at night, link. This is a really interesting concept that they are going to be doing. While there are some thoroughbred tracks that have night time racing, these are uselly the lower tracks such as Delta Downs or Praire Medows. Although Meadowlands runs it's TB races at night, but then again it's uselly a standardbred track. Churchill by far will be the biggest name to have night time racing. Turfway also has night time racing, but I don't consider it to have the presitge of Churchill and Keenland.
Speaking of Keenland, their meet is underway and I'll be previewing the Bluegrass S. this weekend and the Lexington next weekend. Also getting previewed on Friday, the Arkansas Derby, Northern Spur (both at Oaklawn), Comley S. (at Aquaduct) and possibly one more race, not sure yet.
Also more details on the podcast will be coming shortly.
