not really options - we have poly at Turfway. Now that Indiana is open into November the great chasm that is the Churchill-Keeneland-Churchill stretch (nowhere to run a less talented type) has shrunk to only about 3 weeks. The challenge is finding any grass races, though. Churchill wrote nearly NOTHING in the September book. The turf was in abysmal shape - overgrown, patchy, weedy from neglect over the summer and they needed to shape it up for Breeder's Cup. I think Keeneland will draw some REALLY tough competition this year with horses coming in to get ready for Breeder's Cup so it is off my list. So there is only the Indiana book. Churchill November has only a very few MSW races on the grass. Nothing at all really below MSW stakes or allowance.
If you someday reach a point where you are paying the bills on a young horse in training that turns out to only be able perform on the grass you will feel my pain.
