Stars of Tomorrow card opens Churchill meet

An 11-race card with the traditional Stars of Tomorrow format will be staged for the limited number of fans in attendance Sunday at Churchill Downs in Louisville, where a pair of $98,000 stakes will serve as the opening-day highlights.

Entries will be drawn Thursday for the Street Sense and Rags to Riches, the 1 1/16-mile co-features, with maiden-special and allowances making up the balance of a card exclusively for 2-year-olds. The Street Sense and Rags to Riches lead to the Grade 2 Kentucky Jockey Club and Grade 2 Golden Rod on Nov. 28.

Fans are being admitted through purchase of online tickets. Except for the summer meet at Ellis Park, this is the first time during the pandemic that fans will be permitted at a Kentucky track. The no-fan policy still will be in effect at Keeneland for the Nov. 6-7 Breeders’ Cup.
