Jonathan Lintner at horseracingnation.com spent time talking the Churchill Downs weather forecast for Breeders’ Cup 2018.
“Jude Redfield, meteorologist at local FOX affiliate WDRB 41, said there’s a “likelihood for unsettled weather” sometime Thursday through Sunday in the region, and that below-average temperatures with highs in the 40s or 50s can be expected.”
