HOPPERTUNITY, CONSTITUTION RETURN IN CLARK

Constitution and Hoppertunity, two auspicious 3-year-olds that were denied starts in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands because of ill-timed setbacks, look for redemption Friday at Churchill Downs against seven rivals in the 140th renewal of the $500,000-added Clark Handicap Presented by Norton Healthcare (Grade I).

The Clark Handicap, one of the country’s most prestigious races for 3-year-olds and up and the centerpiece of a special 12-race “Black Friday” program at the famed Louisville racetrack, will go as Race 11 at approximately 5:35 p.m. (all times Eastern). Friday’s first race is 12:40 p.m.
