Friday's headliner at Keeneland is the $300000 Sycamore S. (G3), which will be run at 1 1/2 miles on the turf as Race 9.

The " Keeneland…

"Future Stars Friday" didn't go too well for our crew overall, though I did have #4 Forte as my top pick in the BC Juvenile, paying $12.04 to Win as he upset…

A $1000000 purse and an automatic berth to the Breeders' Cup Turf are at stake Saturday, September 10 in the Kentucky Turf Cup (G2)! As with so many of Kentucky Downs's rich races, the Turf Cup drew an overflow field: 12 in the starting gate, plus one horse on the also-eligible list.

A sentimental renewal of the Queen Elizabeth II Challenge Cup and the turf marathon known as the Sycamore Stakes will put Keeneland's grass course front and center during the second week of its Fall Meeting.
