Lexington goes to Derby Kitten (9-1)

The Blue Grass, Lexington and Ben Ali no longer serve any purpose as graded events. Keeneland should be embarrassed by the fields in these once important races.

Polytrack = junk

Not even bettable races. Just go with the Kitten horse.

Just curious, but why is a turf sprint for fillies and mares named after Giants Causeway? Is there a connection there that I am missing?

I'd love to help you, but I'm still trying to figure out what they ever put the Man O' War on grass.

Are all the horses too busy running in allowances this meet to go in the Ben Ali?
