Default Turf racing suspended at Churchill..

TURF RACING AT CHURCHILL DOWNS SUSPENDED

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (Saturday, June 11, 2022) – Churchill Downs Racetrack has suspended racing over its Matt Winn Turf Course for at least two weeks.

“In order to allow our new turf course to continue to develop its root system, we have suspended turf racing for the next two weeks,” said Churchill Downs President Mike Anderson. “The new Bermuda-hybrid grass was installed last fall and will continue to mature during the very warm days and weeks ahead. We’ve made a long-term investment in our turf course, and we’re confident this brief pause will allow it to become more robust.”
