Editor’s Note:

It’s hard to believe that the Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby have both come so quickly and been added to the record books most assuredly.

It’s hard to fathom that Memorial Day and now the 4th of July have zoomed through 2022 like “Maverick” in “Top Gun.”

It’s even harder to think that we are now done with the 2022 version of the Churchill Downs’ Spring and Summer Meet — the signature racing season of our year.

On Monday, Churchill Downs celebrated the end of one more year with a 4th of July celebration of top racing.

How could the meet any better than with Cody’s Wish delivering on yet another request and “wish” by the colt’s most faithful fan.

Here’s a few looks from our great friend and fantastic racing promoter Holly M. Smith. Take a gander:
