Keeneland dates are April 5-26, 2019. (Friday to Friday). Easter is April 21, so I am ruling that out.
That leaves April 5-7 or 12-14 for a full weekend.
Please post your preference, if you have one. My own is 12-14, as it is likely to be a couple degrees warmer. Thanks.
I have no preference between April 5-7 and 12-14; I know that
Governator will be in the area on the 11th and would therefore prefer 12-14. I can get to the area on Avios both Fridays, but cannot get back to NYC on either Sunday. Best I see so far is to fly on Sunday to PHL and then catch (SL)AMtrak from there.
My actual preference is to hold the Do over Easter weekend (April 19-21), as I could get there late Thursday and stay until Monday - but since this is off the table I will deal with whichever option gets chosen.
