Turfway Park Fall Championship
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Turfway Park Fall Championship is a Grade III event for three-year-olds and up, run at Turfway Park in Kentucky most every year since 1919 except 1972, and a long break from 1934 to 1963. Raced over a mile course on the dirt, it offers a purse of $100,000.
