Trainer Bobby Frankel was obviously concerned about the condition of the Keeneland Turf course in the pre-race interview when he complained about the chopped up surface and why it was that way in only the second day of racing at the Keeneland meet. Alinghi didn't seem to like the turf, but also seemed to have nowhere to go entering the stretch and may have been reserved by jockey Edgar Prado when he realized he had no chance.

KEEP THE FAITH ran a very game third last weekend after setting blistering fractions on the front end against some of the best turfers here including ARTIE SCHILLER. Good to see the dirt race was a poor judgement call by Bin Suroor(real surprise there!)
