Now 87 and living in Boulder, Colo., she returned Thursday to Churchill Downs, where Secretariat’s saga began.

Emmy-nominated producer Debra Martin Chase will lead the project, having also produced the network’s musical movie franchise “The Cheetah Girls” in addition to films “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” and “The Princess Diaries.” The script is from April Blair, based on the novel by Mark Peter Hughes. The project’s title (and the band’s name) comes from a student-led protest in the book to save the school’s organic lemonade machine.
