Kentucky Downs continues its racing into September

FRANKLIN, Ky. – Live horse racing continues at Kentucky Downs in Franklin.

Saturday, a total of 6 $1,000,000 races will take place at the track, where you can quench your sports betting thirst while waiting for a sportsbook to open.

On Sunday, two races worth $500,000 each will happen, while another 2 take place on Wednesday.

If you’ve never been to the track at Kentucky Downs before, let one of its winningest trainers tell you what you can expect.

“I’d say look around, it’s a good time. If you don’t like the horses, you can go to the casino and play a little horse race. It’s not far from Nashville, which is always a good time,” Mike Baker says.

The live racing will wrap up on Wednesday, Sept. 13.
