A new installation to the 2011 Series schedule, the President’s Cup at Churchill Downs this summer is a Group 1 race over 2,000 metres.

The venerable Churchill Downs opened in 1875, almost 100 years after the first race course was created in Lexington in 1789. Since then, the name Churchill Downs has become synonymous with “The Home of the Kentucky Derby”, and the many long-held traditions of thoroughbred racing in America.
