Potential Start: April 11-Keeneland

[BPLichorowiec]

Sounds great. I'm getting excited just thinking about this.

Chuck was originally thinking a 35-40k claiming race and now he is entertaining the idea of an allowance race. I wonder if this has anything to do with Sumwon's progress or just trying to get a race into her?

I was hoping to fly somewhere relatively close to stay the day before and after the race. Suggestions folks???

The earlier the better with reservations.....

Is KEE a track that would require tickets in advance because the track is so well respected and the meets so short ???

This facility was on my list of "ballparks" to visit for historical reasons and next to CD I can't think of an east coast track with a better reputation for fans from the perspective of innovative yet historically rich. Am I dreaming or is this true?

the airport is literally across the street fom the track...but will be more expensive than flying into cinci or L-ville...

tickets can still be had for that day here:

any hotel with an available room is the closest

oh, and everything you have heard is true...my favorite track.

we thought Kentucky Horse Park was VERY cool.
