I have to give it the edge over both Aqueduct and Santa Anita. Its amazing what the change in surface back to dirt does when you look at a Card and start thinking about races and spots to play. Before the grass races were always appealing but beyond that every race had to many variables in it with first time surface horses. Half the Card became a pass....

Weather report has severe flooding warning for Thursday/Friday.  About 3 inches of rain forecast today and tomorrow.

Any chance you will put up the TG\'s for Keeneland tonight?

I like the card at Keenland as well. However, there is a strong possibility that the turf course will be something other than firm. This could turn the handicapping upside down. I am sticking with Santa Anita and their large fields in a few of those stakes. Should make for some decent payoffs.

May sound crazy, but if thundershowers train thru there like it looks like they might over the next 36 hours, including during racing tomorrow, I have to think there is a chance they wont race or wont get the whole card in Friday.  I had taken off work weeks ago to attend from out of town and gave up on any hope of going today when looking at the forecast details.

There is no possible way that turf will be firm on Saturday, they will be lucky if the main track is completely dried out based on what I see.
