Multiple Grade I winner 'TDN Rising Star' Thorpedo Anna (Fast Anna) will be paraded at Churchill Downs Friday, Nov. 29 in the paddock during the ninth race, the race track announced Sunday afternoon.

One of the candidates for Horse of the Year honors, the presumed champion 3-year-old filly will join the field during the walkover to the paddock and will remain there through the race, from approximately 4:30 to 4:50 p.m.

Thorpedo Anna has won five races at the elite level this season, namely the GI Longines Kentucky Oaks, DK Horse Acorn Stakes, Coaching Club American Oaks, Cotillion Stakes, and Longines Breeders' Cup Distaff against older mares. She came a dwindling head short of winning the GI Draftking Travers Stakes back in August as well.
