The GR I Blue Grass
Posted: Tue Mar 31, 2015 3:22 pm
Keeneland opens with a great Saturday card. A positive change in the Blue Grass is that the race will be run over the dirt for the first time since 2007. We have had some horses run well out of this race in the Derby over the all-weather track, so this edition could very well give us one to seriously consider in the Derby. It's probably why Pletcher chose this race for Carpe Diem. Here's the field and past performances. TJ
