A Morning with Race Horses – Equine Exercise and Conditioning at Turfway Park – Florence, Kentucky – 02/23/2010

We spent some time this morning watching race horse conditioning and racing practice at Turfway Park in Florence, Kentucky.

The Horse Racing Industry is a large part of the local economy throughout Northern Kentucky.

UPDATE: As of 2020, Turfway Park has been acquired by Churchill Downs and is scheduled to undergo a $150 million renovation project. The facility will be completely rebuilt and is scheduled to re-open in the Summer of 2021.
