Lexington, KY – Several Kentucky women's health organizations are teaming up with First Lady Jane Beshear's Horses and Hope program to promote October as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

In addition to information booths and a Horses and Hope feature race for fillies, Beshear says Pink Day activities include free screenings for track workers and their families.

Horses and Hope sponsored a Breast Cancer Race Day at Turfway Park in Northern Kentucky, and a similar event is planned at Churchill Downs on November 16th.
