Editor’s Note:

It is always a great day when you add some major Stakes race events with Churchill Downs and mix in a September Saturday, to boot.

Special.

When you put Holly M. Smith on the scene to capture all the actions?

Ever better.

Ever more special.

Here’s a look at Saturday’s wonderful card at the big oval in Louisville — through the eyes and lens of our incredible friend, Holly M. Smith:
