Officially on the Anti-Polytrack bandwagon
 

It is absolutely RIDICULOUS that they took those races off the turf today at Keeneland. LAST DAY of the meet until the following spring and they can't keep them. F that......F'n Polytrack

Tom,

Totally disagree.. Try telling that to the connections of Up an Octave who you may recall breaking down after the wire in a KEE spring stake on a VERY saturated grass course...

It's a safety precaution, not a turf preservation issue.

I will take this comment back if the course has taken alot of rain, that I didn't know, but the last two days it looked really nice there.....

rained yesterday... http://www.weather.com/outlook/trave...=0&when=102706

Actually rained quite a few nights in a row also.

they should just mobe the thing to Ellis Park...:D
beautiful today!
hope it sticks

Yes today was a beautiful day but Halloween looks like rain again.

It rained hard the past two days and thru the night; really hard around 1 or so in the morning today. cleared up to be a nice day, but the ground is soaked in the backyard-was out at keeneland today, but didnt walk the turf course in stilletos(sp?) we had the rain the cancelled the world series in st. louis.

Alright, I take back my rant, I am back on the Polytrack train....ALL HAIL POLYTRACK!!!!!

Id play Ellis anytime over KEE(I know, they dont run at the same time).

but I never thought I would say that about Ellis.

its now down to just Ellis and CD as the major racetracks in KY that have a legitimate main track.


Repent

count me in. I cant confidently make a selection.

lol,
nothing like handicapping, coming to some strong conclusions and then watching the ENTIRE field do a complete reversal of form.

Ive got no problem with being wrong, but when every horse in the race is making a distinct form change something is not right.
