On the clubhouse level of Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, you will find a stunning glass replica of the racetrack created by Craig Colquhoun. Using heat, metal and glass, this master artist skillfully and successfully constructed 4,000 detailed glass pieces to fit inside the 30- foot racetrack sculpture. Truly capturing the spirit of Derby Day, you will see everything from fans in the infield, TV cameras, extravagant hats, ushers, marching bands and of course horses striding for the run of the roses.
