An old wooden barn, with a decorative “barn quilt”, located near Lexington, the heart of Kentucky’s bluegrass region. By many, it is known as the horse capital of the world, and is home to many famous racing horses, and the horse farms that raised them. On the first Saturday in May, the Kentucky Derby is held in Louisville. Known as the “Run of the Roses” its the first leg of the Triple Crown, the premier horse racing event that includes the Preakness and Belmont Stakes later in the year.
