Keeneland in July - sure sounds strange, but no more unusual than many other things this year.
It looks as if they have put together a superb card of racing for Saturday, and I look forward to seeing your final choice after the entries have been drawn. I plan to watch the "opening day" this afternoon and expect that it will be quite weird to see scenes of the Keeneland paddock without the usual crowds. Congrats to you on a truly outstanding performance in the points contest last Saturday. You got your nose down right at the wire to win the head bob.  Well done!

Thanks. Nice to score well in the points contest, but kind of frustrating too. I obviously had a more than fair opinion in several races, but chose to play a race in the ROI in which my opinion wasn't so good. I am always torn between playing a bigger bet in a single race or playing smaller wagers in more than one race. I usually go with the bigger bet or bets in a single race which often turns out like it did last Saturday. Just another 30 or 40 years and I'll learn how to play this game!

Keeneland
First two races are maidens, so I say we eliminate them and play races 3 through 10 for a total of 8 races. 3rd race starts at 2:12 Eastern time so that should give everyone plenty of time to put in their picks and shouldn't be too burdensome for the scorers or those that choose to actually handicap each and every race.

Whichever way you call it is fine with me. Either option would provide a good contest.
I did notice that in race 2, 11 out of the 13 entrants are first time starters. Without being able to look at the live tote before finalizing entries, we will all be doing a lot of guessing if that one is included. I guess that the good news is that we won't have to spend a lot of time pondering over the pp's for that race.
