SUMMARY: Old Friends Farm is welcoming the legendary racehorse Big Brown, the 2008 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner, to its lineup of retired champions. Big Brown is the fifth horse of this caliber to retire at the farm, joining Silver Charm, War Emblem, Charismatic, and I’ll Have Another. To celebrate his arrival, Old Friends will host Big Brown’s Barn Bash on October 18th, featuring fun activities and a meet-and-greet with Big Brown. The event highlights the beauty and charm of these champion horses, reminiscent of the author’s experience seeing Go for Gin at the Kentucky Horse Park.

Big Brown, who won two of the three legs of the Triple Crown, is retiring and the farm is having a party with a chance to meet the guest of honor.

SUMMARY: Florida residents with ties to Louisville are facing the storm’s impact tonight. A woman from southern Indiana, living 20 miles from Milton’s landfall, opted to stay put. Another woman from Louisville, now in a mandatory evacuation zone in the Tampa Bay area, relocated to Orlando due to concerns of gas shortages and evacuation delays. Many were delayed in their travels as they attempted to evacuate. The storm has already caused damage to dozens of homes.
