As the sky lightens behind the iconic twin spires of Churchill Downs, Kentuckians flocked to the track for a day of horse racing, bourbon, music and fun. This year marks the second annual Thurby, a day that celebrates all things Kentucky.
Considered a more casual day at Churchill Downs, Thurby-goers dawn everything from jeans and boots to bright dresses and hats. But May’s unusually cold weather has led many to bundle up in sweatshirts and jackets for the day-long party.
In addition to appropriately dressing for the weather, guests to Churchill Downs can now make sure they have the best Derby celebration possible via a new app.
