In both races there was a lone speed horse and those jocks were able to dictate the fractions and their mounts held well because of those splits.

Jocks as a whole are never afraid of setting the pace, even on poly. BBB

Keenland was worried about the handle dropping right after they installed the poly. . . While it may have seemed like they dodged a bullet, I wouldn't be suprised if they start losing alot of business. . .

I did pretty good last Fall with the "poly" @ Keeneland, so far this meet...
I'm a sucker for the ten cent supers, been concentrating mostly on those plays...
14 for 76 with winners "on top" for the meet so far...

I don't think they will lose ALOT of business because of the purses. Although, it is going to be nothing but turf horses on the grounds. It's amazing the allowance races on the poly are 80% turf horses. As Andy Beyer said 'they are penalizing horses for being fast'.

It's coming to a race track near you soon. It's the future, because the owners want it.

What do you mean? In this race, Leparoux was "fearless" charging right to the front, setting his "blazing" fractions only to be run down late by his stablemate. No Round Pond in this race.

tried a few at Oaklawn last weekend, and I gotta say, things worked out nice on a couple! You can cover a lot for about $15. I think I was 2 for 5.

I dont get why Keeneland is so slow, Hollywood played like a fair surface last year on the days I played, its like Keeneland is so far to the extreme.

Which is in direct conflict of the way they are breeding them. Doesn't seem to make much sense to breed for speed and then put in anti-speed tracks. But then again, this sport loves to do whatever it can to shoot itself in the foot.
