The 2nd Annual Erv Woolsey Memorial Race is set to return to Churchill Downs on June 14.

The race is presented by Aces Racing, the partnership founded to carry on Woolsey’s legacy and lifelong love of Thoroughbred racing.

A portion of ticket proceeds purchased through the event link will benefit the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance, an organization dedicated to the care, retraining and rehoming of retired racehorses. Tickets are available here.

“My Dad had a fierce love and passion for horse racing! I’m very grateful to Aces Racing for memorializing him within this sport that he held so deep to his heart. Thank you Jordan and Ashley,” shares Clinton Woolsey.

“Being able to sponsor this race as a tribute to Erv is an absolute honor and privilege,” says Aces Racing co-founder Jordan Markwell. “Last year, seeing friends and family come together, laughing at stories, enjoying the races and just having a great day was truly remarkable and something I know Erv would be proud of. We’re excited to do it again this year, while also benefitting such a fantastic organization, Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance.”

The  2nd Annual Erv Woolsey Memorial Race will be broadcast on TwinSpires.com and FanDuel TV.
