I've done ok at Keeneland and hit some of those longshots which surprised me. I don't always do well at playing synthetic tracks. I usually do horrendous at Delmar and Hollywood and Santa Anita. The only explanation that I can think of is that I've been playing horses at Keeneland that actually have synthetic track experience and I think that there are fewer of those at Keeneland than at the Cali tracks. Seems to me that a majority of the horses at Keeneland are coming from conventional dirt and are unproven on synthetic, but the betting public isn't paying any attention. In California, horses are going from one synthetic track to another so it's harder to find horses that may have an experience edge on others. Whatever, the true explanation is, I like it and will be playing Keeneland more in the future.
