Breeders Cup Keeneland
 

Anybody that has been to Keeneland with seat suggestions?

You'll probably get just as good of a view from your San Diego high-rise as you will from many of the seats being offered.

Paddock view...parking lot view :-)

I like anywhere in the 3rd floor grandstand. Looks like 425. for the 2 day ticket.

That thought had crossed my mind :p

It appears the seats will go quickly and I will not be able to pull the trigger on any until later in the day.

I think it was Andy Serling that said (paraphrasing) 'A cold rainy day at Keeneland might be worse than a winter's day at AQ.'

So I was looking at the 84 Club....but it is also nice and cozy in the Casino's of Las Vegas !

Capping tix at 28k

We're going, my wife will be shooting her first BC, but I'm staying either in our hotel room or a nearby bar to watch it both days.

Any reserved seat that day would be nice. For the Bluegrass I was able to snag a single seat in the finish line section. Overslept by 15 mins that morning and pickings were slim. Can't imagine it'll be easy to get one for this occasion.

F5 F5 F5 as fast as you can with a minute to post would be my advice.

I was at keeneland for the shade well turf mile this year and it was insanely cold. The wind whipping on the hill, whipping across the track was awful. Grandstand doesn't get any sun..
was cold as hell

Thanks ! Thinking Vegas might be a better choice this year- have been spoiled by the Southern CA weather for the past few years. The freezing at Arlington still gives me PTSD.

The monsoon at Monmouth was lovely. Also remember a BC Friday at Churchill so cold and damp we left early. Almost killed this board's Irishman and Hooves and wife who arrived from FLA.

IMO AP wasn't that bad unless you were in the temporary bleachers.

never been there but it looks absolutely beautiful at Keeneland on TV. Very green.

couldn't have selected a better track.

Been there one time for the Rood & Riddle Dowager a couple of years ago. Started the day by having breakfast in the track kitchen next to Bobby Ussery and then watching the workouts. It is absolutely beautiful and a great horseplayers environment. But this will be one Breeders Cup that will be better in the comfort of my own home with Xpressbet at my fingertips. I just don't see how they'll handle the crowds. Love the track!

its perfection. Everyone goes above and beyond at keeneland

Is this seriously going to be as hot of a ticket as everyone thinks? Tix are super expensive. Seems like its going to be the thoroughbred elites and that's about it

hotels in Lexington are mostly gone. So I would say yes, hot ticket.

Lot of tix are gone already through advance ticket sales...will be even less then 28k when the tix are released to the public today

LOL - That's where we were :eek:


Vegas Baby !

Going to dry my best to qualify for the BCBC for a nice cozy seat. Otherwise going to have to settle for the big screen in my living room. Good luck to everyone finding their desired seats.

Sorry, the system is unable to handle more requests at this time. Please try again later.
