Nine-Time Triple Crown Event Winner Pat Day Leads Hall of Fame Jockey Autograph Signing

On Friday, one of the largest assemblies of Hall of Fame jockeys descended on Keeneland race track.  Luckily for horse racing enthusiasts, Keeneland's Hall of Fame Jockey Day also included an autograph sigining.

The jockeys, led by nine-time Triple Crown race winner Pat Day signed on the North Terrace from 2-3 p.m.  There was also a live question and answer session prior to the session at Keenland's Walking Ring that began at 12:05 p.m.

Jockeys signed a special commemorative poster that fans could acquire with a suggested $15 donation that benefited the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame.  In addition to Day, greats such as Calvin Borel, Laffit Pincay Jr. and Gary Stevens also attended.  

Day was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1991.  During his career, he won one Kentucky Derby, five Preakness Stakes, and three Belmont Stakes.

Impressively, Day is the all-time leading ride at Keeneland and Churchill Downs.  He was the only jockey to have a mount in each of the first 20 Breeders Cups and boasts 12 victories at the event.  

In 2005, Day retired from competition.  Today, he actively shares his faith with groups across the country and is an ambassador for the Race Track Chaplaincy of America.
