There were five graded stakes Saturday at Churchill Downs, highlighted by two Breeders’ Cup Challenge Series “Win and You’re In” races: the Fleur de Lis and the Stephen Foster Handicaps.

While the action was going on, Twitter was abuzz with some great tweets. Here are some of the ones that caught our eye.
