Keeneland, a Day at the Track- Lexington, KY

Springtime would not bloom as beautifully if I haven’t managed to spend at least one afternoon at Lexington’s Keeneland Race Course. Granted, as we struggle free of Old Man Winter’s chilly embrace, it’s been a little difficult making it to this season’s meets. But just as those resolute jockeys astride their young thoroughbreds forge ahead, so must we rally to cheer them on. Besides, this rewarding experience is sooo Kentucky, it just can’t be missed!
Be sure to purchase a program on your way in where you can peruse the lineup on every race. You will find jockeys, trainers and the odds listed for the horses, as well as backstories. Odds change of course, right up to the beginning of each race. These variations depend on many factors including the effects of contestants that may have dropped out of the running. If you’re puzzled on where to place your cash you’re in luck! Keeneland handily provides “Betologists” who are happy to answer questions and assist in venturing a more informed wager. And least we forget the ultimate reason for our mission, nothing beats the thrill of choosing a WINNER!
