Keeneland concludes with typically tough Quad..

Not a particularly great day at Keeneland Friday, partially tripped by Kickin N Screamin tiring in the last 100 yards of the 2nd to wind up 5th when third looked a certainty. Did catch a healthy $357.90 triple in the 3rd though and a $140 P3 between that race and the 5th, so the day wasn’t a fiasco.
Hope you did OK as we head to the last day of this fun three week session. I think it’s been a largely successful meet at Keeneland for me, as this has never been a place where I do well historically. Note that Santa Anita ($74k), Aqueduct ($51k), Golden Gate ($14k) and Keeneland ($10k) all have carryovers today, with Keeneland needing to make a mandatory payout.
Head to Los Angeles this afternoon to start coverage of the Breeders’ Cup. Look forward to a great week of informative guests as I try to help decipher this year’s 2 days of action. Hope you’ll tune in!
