When the starting gates open Friday for the Juvenile Turf Sprint race during the Breeders’ Cup in Del Mar, California, a special filly named Averly Jane will have a large contingent of University of Kentucky fans and connections rooting her on. Bred and raised at UK’s Maine Chance Farm, a unit of the College of Agriculture, Food and Environment’s Department of Animal and Food Sciences, Averly Jane is undefeated in her first four starts. While this highly visible racing success of Averly Jane is very exciting, the greatest legacy for the university comes from preparing students to become skilled and successful contributors to the equine workforce after they graduate.
