“Twilight Thursday” Presented by Blue Moon version 2.0 jump starts the live Thoroughbred racing week at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Ky. on Thursday, May 16.

Post time for the first of eight races is a later-than-the-norm 5:00 P.M. (Eastern).

The third race, the nominal feature on the card, is an $80,000 optional claiming, “three other than” allowance event for fillies and mares three-years-old and upward going eight and one half-furlongs on the Matt Winn Turf Course.

Jeff Drown and Michael J. Ryan’s Sassy Little Lila, who will make her first start for trainer Rodolphe Brisset, is the 2-1 morning line favorite in a compact, albeit well-matched, field of seven. Jockey Julien Leparoux will be astride the six-year-old daughter Artie Schiller.
