I think Gypsy Robin can win against Groupie Doll, she could be totally uncontested today on the front end.

Thought that Purely Hot, the Presque Isle Terror, could be dangerous too. Will be interesting to see how hard Vega sends..

So Keeneland, which one ran almost everything on the turf in wet weather when it had dirt, takes a G1 off the turf after a 25 minute storm?

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?

The same NY that increasingly continues to give us some of the most biased tracks, both turf and dirt, in the history of the sport? I mean, were you around for the Saratoga meet?

If it were up to me, I'd run where scheduled. However, I try not to complain too much when they take off the turf and run on the poly. I can still play these races. I generally don't play the slop alternatives.
