I get that. The 1st post in this thread creates a bad enough picture. At best, tickets will likely be excessively priced and hard to get.

My point simply was that a lot of fans have no interest in attending -- and when you're in that camp -- Keeneland becomes a very ideal location.

In other words, when your "preferred seating for Keeneland Cup '15" is hundreds of miles away from the track, it's an excellent choice of host track.
