Falls City Handicap

The Falls City Handicap is a race for Thoroughbred horses run at Churchill Downs in the late fall of each year, often on Thanksgiving Day. A Grade II event, the Falls City is open to fillies and mares, age three and up, willing to race one and one-eighth miles on the dirt, and carries a purse of $300,000.

This race is in its 92nd running in 2007.

Hall of Famer Princess Doreen won this race in 1924. This is the first race Susan's Girl won after a year's layoff for injury. That was in November, 1974.
