Churchill Downs' Barn Notes: Proxy Gets Big Speed Figure After G1 Clark Win

Paradege Proxy gets a big speed figure after G1 Clark's win.

Godolphin's 4-year-old colt Proxy won the $750,000 Clark at Churchill Downs on Friday. Continuar won Cattleya Stakes at Tokyo Racecourse on Saturday morning. Trainer Greg Foley will keep about 12 horses at Trackside Louisville for winter training. It's been 13 years since TrackSide Louisville remained open for training and several outfits are eager to keep horses in Louisville to run at Turfway Park. The next stop on the Japan Road to the Kentucky Derby is the Zen-Nippon Nisai Yushun held on Dec. 14 at Kawasaki.
