Races are returning to Churchill Downs next month after a review into a dozen horse deaths that occurred in a short space of time led to no concrete insights. The suspension of track activities came into effect in June, leading to the remainder of the spring meeting races taking place at Ellis Park.

Following the conclusion of a review into the circumstances around the deaths, Churchill Downs Incorporated CEO Bill Carstanjen labeled the fatalities “a series of unfortunate circumstances.” He said that no significant differences were found in comparison to previous years and emphasized that the track is “very safe.”

The fall meeting will start on September 14 and end on October 1.
