GATE TO GOAL

Horse racing is a popular sport in Kentucky. We have Keeneland & the Red Mile. They are both in Lexington. Then there is Church Hill Downs which is in Louisville & that's where the Kentucky Derby is held. (When the race is going on it's the most famous 2 minutes in sports history!!!!)
This is a picture of a sculpture of a Thoroughbred.
(in downtown Lexington)
| This is a picture of a hockey player for the Thoroughblades. He is the star player for the T-blades. (We call them T-blades for short) They are our only pro team in Kentucky. Some other players are Mike Craig, Mark Smith, Garrett Burnett, Jon Colemon & Chris Armstrong. |

The T-Blades mascot is a thoroughbred whose name is Lucky.
(that's how they got the name Thoroughblades)
We hope you liked what we have researched on the Thoroughblades & Kentucky Horseracing. This is our last picture. We also hope this gives you an idea about the T-Blades.
Kentucky has a lot to offer.
Thanks a lot for your time.
