Reserved grandstand seats go on sale today.
I picked up 4 on the finish line for the first Saturday 10/5. Taking a friend and his wife who recently started getting interested in racing/handicapping. Hopefully we can get a forum meet up if anyone else is going...

Been forever ago, but met up with Gam and Gvido (RIP) on that Saturday probably 10ish years ago. May have been the last time I've been to Keeneland. Went for the Ashland in the spring and fallstars sat. in the fall for a few years... maybe starting a new run now that the kids are a bit older.

Well, I've said it for like the last 5 years, that I hope to be there this year, but maybe it'll come true this time.

Been thinking about it all week and the weather for tomorrow and Saturday (anyway) is enticing, but at this moment looking unlikely. No home UK football apparently as there are reasonable rates on rooms. I'll post here if I end up down that way, ELK (or look for me around that 2nd level sports bar area, LOL).

Was just looking hard at that one, Ozzy. You think he can get up at 6F? Certainly looks like there’ll be a hot pace to run at.
BTW, not going. Maybe if I win some money this weekend I can get down next weekend.

Gam, I have my worries at 6f but he seems to improving quite a bit. Yes he’ll get pace but I worry how the track with pay with as dry as we have been the last month.
Friends own him (I turned down the opportunity to get in on the yearling purchase , DOH!) so just s big supporter for them. The colt himself is kinda nasty!
One turn, running the last 3/8ths, that’s his game and has worked well going 7f and the one turn mile. Corey should be able to time the move and unleash him when he needs to is the thinking,
