Tickets for Keeneland's upcoming Fall Meet will go on sale to the public Aug. 15 at 9 a.m. All tickets must be pre-purchased via Keeneland's official online ticket office at tickets.Keeneland.com/racing. The meet will run from Oct. 6-28.
Keeneland will award $9.05 million in purse money–a record for any racing season at the track–for 22 stakes. The meet's richest race is the $1-million GI Coolmore Turf Mile during the track's signature opening Fall Stars Weekend. Eight stakes that weekend are part of the Breeders' Cup Challenge Series: Win and You're In, with winners earning automatic starting positions and free entry into the 40th Breeders' Cup World Championships Nov. 3-4 at Santa Anita Park.
“Keeneland's Fall Meet is an exciting time as we showcase racing stars that are competing for berths in the Breeders' Cup and year-end honors,” Keeneland President and CEO Shannon Arvin said. “The gorgeous fall landscape, the pageantry of racing and the world-class competition all combine to make the fall an exceptionally memorable experience for our horsemen and fans.”
