Chapelmount Downs is a horse racing track inside Louisville, in the far north of Knox Country. It sits south of the Louisville State University campus and north of Leafhill Heights.
The track is a large open course with its own office buildings. Its name and setting recall the famous real racetrack in Louisville that hosts the Kentucky Derby. A home video tape found around Knox Country, Kentucky Furlongs, shows a race held here.
The Downs is more of a landmark than a supply stop. Its buildings hold mostly office goods. Survivors pass it on the way through southern Louisville, and the wide open track gives a rare stretch of clear ground in the middle of the city.

Surviving in Chapelmount Downs
Louisville is the most crowded part of Knox Country, and the streets around the Downs reflect that. The open track gives long sight lines and room to move, which helps when a crowd is following. It can also serve as open ground to lead zombies away from nearby buildings. The Downs makes a useful waypoint between the university and the southern districts.
