Keeneland is combining evidence of a significant commitment to its future with a salute to its rich history during its 16-day Spring Meet from April 5-26. While in the early stages of the largest construction project here since opening in 1936, the season will feature the 100th running of the $1 million Toyota Blue Grass (G1) on Saturday, April 6 among 19 stakes worth a meet record $8.1 million and will offer a schedule of popular activities and special events for fans of all ages.
Racing will be conducted Wednesdays through Sundays. Post time for the first race is 1 p.m. ET each day, except April 26 when the first race will be at 12:30 p.m. to accommodate the 10-race card that will conclude in time for that evening’s April Selected Horses of Racing Age Sale.
