![]() Using Keeneland's terrific polycapping database, I've put together a few numbers on the winners of only poly races for the first half of the meet. Small sample size, but what the hell, maybe there's something to be learned.
# of polytrack races: 65 avg. half-mile position of winner: 2.4 lengths behind winners with prior polytrack start: 47 of 65 winners without prior polytrack start: 18 of 65 (7 of them had at least one turf start) winners with prior polytrack win: 32 of 65 winners' last race surface: dirt - 9 AWS - 26 turf - 25 none (FTS) - 5 winners with last workout at KEE: 24 of 65 winners with last workout on AWS: 37 of 65 posts 1-2: 7-for-130 (5.4%) posts 3-5: 20-for-195 (10.3%) posts 6-10: 32-for-274 (11.7%) posts 11-14: 6-for-52 (11.5%) hot barns McPeek - 31/6-4-6 ($2.80 ROI) Arnold - 12/4-3-1 ($6.31 ROI) Proctor - 10/3-1-1 ($2.97 ROI) cold barns Lukas - 16/0-0-0 Harty - 8/0-0-1 Asmussen - 7/0-0-1 Foley - 9/0-1-1 Wilkes - 14/0-2-3 |

![]() Another important note:
only TWO firsters have won route maidens. One was a 2yo in the fall, and the other was in a dreadful MSW for 4&up in the spring. Keep this in mind for the upcoming portion of the meet where there are 8 races scheduled for maidens going long.
