Default Kentucky racing

OK, I admit since Ellis ended, I've been getting killed betting KY racing, mostly Turfway and one day of Kentucky Downs, so I might be a bit biased You think of the great tradition of the Derby, the BC being run there and Keeneland. Then you see that crap Polytrack and garbage pit KY Downs. I'm getting more and more convinced the Turfway isn't that far removed from pure gambling; randomness seems the order of the day day in, day out. And KY Downs is no better. Fortunately, they don't run often. I can live w/out Turfway in the winter. But what really makes me sick is how the easiest dirt track to make money on, Keeneland, has been converted to Polytrack. The powers that be in KY don't want my wagering dollars, and I'm guessing I'm not the only one who feels that way. Let's see what's left: the two Churchill meets, Ellis, and Kee grass racing. Realistically, there's no need to bother with KY other than Churchill.
