If this occured in NY there would be a firestorm of complaints. It's Keeneland, so there probably won't be much ado about it.

The deluge that hit the grass course was such that it went from firm to yielding in such a short period of time that the Grade I First Lady went in almost 1:40. And then it continued to pour through the end of the card. The Shadwell result would have more legitimate if they ran a mile in 1:47?
