Sorry,but The Keeneland simulcast operation is one of the worst I have ever been to.They do not carry a lot of tracks,there are tons of mexican two and three year old children screaming and running around all over the place,They need more SAM machines,and they are closed on Monday and Tuesday.And it gets even worse during the live meet.Every other place I have been in the U.S. is open 7 days a week.Keeneland does NOT cater to the simulcast player at all.I'd drive to Churchill any day instead of going to Keeneland for a day of simulcast play.The only thing they have that is cool is drive thru betting.
