Geoff Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I see it now. It's the spiers, a curved line (to represent a fence or track boundry?), and a horse. Athletic Director: KTU Blue Grassers Football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 If this were to symbolize "down the stretch", the horse should be facing the other way.Either this is taken form the backstretch, or the horse is going in the wrong direction.

DEAD! Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 This is a lot different than previoud designs which are very detailed and/or stylish. It seems too simplistic for an event like that. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I like the general look, but yeah, the horse is going the wrong bloody way.Horse racing has lost a tremendous amount of support in the past few decades as the old farts who chewed on cigars and spent their entire days at the track die off. They're trying to rebrand themselves to target the younger crowd. This logo with its futuristic, sleek look would help do it... if they didn't have an experience that was, except for the races themselves, so dull and loathsome.

MJD802 Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I looked at that for a good 5 minutes before figuring out where the horse was. Its like on of those wooden JESUS things where you had to stare at it to find the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclopsis Joe Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Ahh, the Churchill Downs spires. I'm surprised they're not green.(Yes, I like Horse Racing) I don't speak for democrats, democrats don't speak for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I loved watching the race on TV. I used to live 10 minutes from the Downs and my parents and I would actually go to my grandparents house which was 40 minutes from the track to watch the race and avoid the idiots.
