A couple of other thoughts:
1. A few more races on each end of the distance spectrum, maybe some 5 and 5 1/2f or some more 1 1/8 races.
2. Races for 5 yr old and up
3. Got to have many more 2yr old races in the fall meet
4. Bring back the 20K races. Currently we have only 16K and 25K claiming races. I dont know how we got on "odd" numbers at CD. What happened to 10/15/20/25/30 ??
5. How about some state-bred races? I know most of the horses are KY-bred but how come Ky is like the only state that doesnt have state-bred races?
CD protects the turf course at all cost, they had the rail up with one week left in the meet.
no disrespect, but the idea about about ky bred races has got to be the dumbest idea ever. The idea is to increase field sizes not to exclude the couple of horses that aren't KY breds.
