The "Breakfast at Keeneland" Tour, Sunday July 26
This was actually my 2nd time to take this tour. It was ok; the track food was actually quite good, better than what I had at the Holiday Inn, anyway. Not sure if I will take the tour again though, but I recommend it if you've never gone.
Morning workouts at Keeneland.
More of the same.
More workouts.
This is Holy Bull, standing at Jonabell farm, the place our group
visited. He's a really pretty horse, and an unusual color too - going
grey, with black m/t/points, but his body has fleabits/speckles all over,
and there's some dappling on his hindquarters.
Holy Bull again.

Affirmed!
Affirmed again. Pretty good-looking for a 23-year-old. They told
us his stud fee is $25,000 (!), and that they breed him to 100 mares
a year.

The stallion barn at Jonabell. All made of heavy-duty concrete brick,
to reduce fire hazard. I didn't hear how large the stalls were, but they
look to be a good 20 feet on a side.... BIG.
