This is an absolute must-do activity for anyone and everyone wishing to visit Lexington. The races are run throughout the months of April and October and are a definite cultural experience. Churchill Downs is grand but it cannot compare to the beauty of Keeneland. It is reminiscent of the races at Ascot in England. Women adorn often large and noticeable hats, while men too are often dressed to the tee. But casual is the normal attire for a day at the races. Placing bets on the race is fun, but this is a place to see and be seen. Plan on spending a full day here. And don't forget to try the Kentucky bourbon bread pudding.

The tour continues through a description of each kind of horse and its development, use and popularity. There are displays of several tapestries: a small reproduction of the Bayeux tapestry found in Bayeux, France. There are 190 horses displayed on the embroidered tapestry. There is replica of Le Chevalier Tapestry which is on exhibit at Montacute House in Somerset, England. Another weaving shows Mohammad leaving Mecca. There are drawings by Leonard di Vinci of his beautiful horses and quite detailed stories about the importation of horses into Spain and the Western Hemisphere by the Spanish. Leave a Comment

 ASHLAND by gkitzmil
The present Italianate style house was completed by Clay’s son James ( in 1857). The interior was remodeled in the Victorian style by Anne Clay McDowell, one of Clay’s granddaughters, in the 1880s.
About 90% of the items in the home have been owned and used by the Clay family.
