Nortons/Churchill Downs Press Conference

A press conference was held today at Rodes to kick off the Derby Diva’s fundraiser, a benefit for the Norton Cancer Institute Breast Health Program. Churchill Downs' John Asher and (retired) jockey Donna Barton Brothers were on hand to announce Churchill Downs’ partnership with the Breast Health Program as part of this year’s “Pink Out” Survivor’s Parade during Kentucky Oaks Day. Asher also announced that for the first time ever, jockeys will be wearing pink riding pants along with the pink silks during the Oaks.
