Keeneland making progress revamping facility for Breeders' Cup

Keeneland officials released more details and photos this week in updating the dramatic transformation of facilities at the Lexington, Ky., track in anticipation of the Oct. 30-31 Breeders’ Cup.

A track release said preparations are “in the home stretch,” with temporary structures expected to accommodate 10,000 more fans than normal.

“The energy around the grounds is palpable,” said Keeneland president Bill Thomason.
