For me, completely expected.
2021 is already set for Del Mar but they’ll be back at Keeneland for 2022.
ADW continues but I get the impression from handle reports from multiple tracks that missing on-site fans is hurting handle (and not surprised).
Yes, it’s the right thing to do however much it hurts.
Expected… but there goes my bucket list trip to Keeneland and the BC that I was gifted. It can be used again next year in Del Mar - but Del Mar is NOT Keeneland…
2020 needs to STFU. Yes, for bigger, far more important reasons - but also for this one, small, admittedly selfish one…
I believe BC and Keeneland said that everything purchased this year would be able to be applied to 2022 when BC returns to Keeneland to make up for the ‘no fans’ part of BC 2020.
All may not be lost!
Well I hope not, that was a grand plus another for the 3 night minimum hotel, also paid in advance and non refundable 7 months ago. Have to call the hotel and see if theres any chance for at least a future credit from them.
Course I am relocating away from relatively easy driving distance sometime next year but will plan on attending in 22.
Assume they will contact ticket holders in the near future with details? Anybody dealt with a hotel under similar circumstances?
