Ellis Park
Kentucky Hall of Fame honors for Baffert, Ramseys

Barbara D. Livingston Trainer Bob Baffert leads Justify through the shed row at Belmont Park on Wednesday.
Less than two months after winning the Kentucky Derby for the fifth time, Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert has been named to the Kentucky Athletic Hall of Fame, it was announced this week by the Louisville Sports Commission. Baffert became just the second trainer to sweep the Triple Crown twice when Justify won the Belmont Stakes on June 9.
Joining Baffert in a group of seven honorees are Ken and Sarah Ramsey, the Nicholasville, Ky., couple who are perennial leading owners and breeders in Kentucky.
Baffert and the Ramseys will be honored at the annual KAHOF dinner on Aug. 22 at the Muhammad Ali Center in downtown Louisville. Hall of Fame plaques are on display in the concourses of Freedom Hall at the Kentucky Fair and Exposition Center.
