One of the most heartfelt storylines this year in horse racing involves Kentucky Oaks contender Percy’s Bar. The 3-year-old filly is named after the late Churchill Downs and Keeneland bartender Percy Pool, and America’s Best Racing was at the Churchill Downs backstretch when Percy’s daughter Nichelle and granddaughter London Lopez got to meet the filly for the first time, just days before her run in the May 1 Oaks.
“She has the same personality as my Dad, a quiet demeanor – but when it’s game time, it’s game time,” Nichelle says. ““Every step that the horse takes, I know that Dad’s spirit is with us, regardless of the outcome.”
