Churchill Downs jump starts a weekend of Thoroughbred racing in Derby City with a customary nine-race program on tap on Friday, June 24 at the venerable Louisville, KY racetrack.

The fourth race on the card–the nominal feature–is a $127,00 first-tier allowance event for fillies and mares three-years-old and upward slated for a 12-furlong journey on the main track.

Glenangus Farm, LLC’s Good Measure, second in her most recent start in a sloppy off-the-turf event under the Twin Spires on May 26, is the definitive 9-5 morning line favorite in a compact field of five. Jockey Mickaelle Michel, a champion apprentice rider in her native France, has the call on the four-year-old bay daughter of Smarty Jones for trainer Graham Motion.

Steam gave out three winners on the “Twilight Thursday” program on June 23 at Churchill Downs and, as a result, 33 days into the 2022 Spring Meet in South Louisville, its top picks are winning at a 31 percent clip and have finished in the money 63 percent of the time.
