Here's hoping that the weather guy is a lousy handicapper (weather handicapper, that is ). Hope to meet a lot (all) of you who are there and the best of trips to SUMWON!

Its exciting to have a runner at Keeneland, would love to see her make a good showing and move in the right direction. Good luck.

ARG! Monday morning weather, Wednesday now 70% chance of showers, high 60.

We may not get to see her on the turf at all!

Keeneland does not take races off the turf, and by that I am saying it has to be a pouring rain for days and days, not just one day.

With the exception of last Fall, I could count on less than 10 fingers the times I've seen races come off turf in the last 7 years.

Hopefully, Somewonelovesyou remains right where she was pointed.

But dont forget that Keeneland loves to show off the polytrack and will take more races off the turf than in the past, especially since the entire field wont try to scratch rather than run in the mud.

Ah-ha! You're right.

Important NEW angle that I have not thought of. And a very good one to remember.

I'm going to be there. I'll probably be all wrapped up in a parka, but will be proudly wearing my DerbyTrail.com hat. First time at Keeneland, first time in Kentucky, first time seeing Sumwon. That's a lot of firsts. Maybe that means she comes in first.

I've read a lot of people saying they're going to be a work on Wednesday. I couldn't even concentrate if I was at work on Wednesday. I just hope I can stay on the road on my way to Keeneland.

See you all there on Wednesday
