Calvin Borel leaves the track aboard Heavenhasmynikki after the special training session for Oaks and Derby contenders

Rayya gets a bath after her training season the Tuesday of Oaks and Derby week

This unique way of advertising for his jockeys on the backstretch caught my eye

Bath time

Seven Trumpets, a 3-year-old colt by Morning Line that caught my eye
Steam swirls off of Seven Trumpets’ chest after his bath

Roses from the Fans of Barbaro adorn the base of his statue a few days past what would have been his fifteenth birthday
Spring flowers in bloom in the Churchill paddock

Pretty sure this is 2017 Kentucky Derby winner Always Dreaming schooling (he was in the paddock at that time)
Barbara Livingston points Always Dreaming’s name above the saddling stalls as the most current Derby winner, as the colt is in the paddock to school
Barbara Livingston is probably suggesting getting a photo of the then most current Derby winner Always Dreaming underneath his name above the Twin Spires, a photo she took and later shared on Twitter
