Current plans are to be in LEX and I’d be interested in a ticket. Also heading to the Stave for dinner.

Excellent. Ticket reserved for you and wiki updated. Looking forward to seeing you at the track.

Not sure if anyone was watching today's races but the Castle & Key Bourbon Stakes (2 year olds going 1 1/16 on turf) featured two offspring of Oscar Performance running 1-2. Oscar Performance is a stallion a few of us FTers have met and fed peppermints at Mill Ridge Farm.

And “The Winner Is” (one of those Oscar Performance colts) won in fine style under Flavien Prat. Enjoying the remainder of my Champagne celebrating the returns on the card. It can be a quirky track so since Breeders’ Cup is here this year I am glued to this meet like I am with Kentucky Downs every year. Hopefully the weather is as stellar next weekend for you all to have a spectacular time

I got in half an hour ago; the TSU I used moved me to the “Bluegrass Suite”, which has one more room than the suite I got in April. I brought some Blanton’s and Peerless; lmk what else I should get for the suite (alcohol/food/non-alcoholic drinks).

Have also arrived and staying at the Hyatt. Surprised by a suite upgrade!
Have no plans for tonight (Thursday), so anyone want to get together?

Could you let me know where you're going. Would love to join if I get there in time. Probably won't be arriving LEX until 6:15ish; planning to leave CVG by 4:30. Thank you!

No particular plans at this time. Can wait for you to 6:30 or so, depends mostly on my tummy being agreeable.

I’m sorry, I don’t think I can make it to LEX.

I am in severe discomfort all the time, have to lie down every hour or so, am in pain even riding in a car, would be terrible company.

Hope y’all have a good time, especially first-time visitors to KY.

That's too bad hope you're feeling better soon, and many a glass will be hoisted to your name this weekend I'm sure!

SDC opportunity just opened up, so if I am able to get my rental car a few hours early, I might make it in time for Chevy Chase Inn tomorrow/Friday, if anyone is planning on doing that.
