As per Paulick
Keeneland began the conversion of its main race track from a synthetic Polytrack material to a dirt surface on Monday.
During the next two weeks, 16,000 tons of Polytrack will be removed from the main track as the first step in the renovation process.
Please note that Keeneland continues to welcome visitors to the grounds all summer. The Keeneland Gift Shop, Paddock, Walking Ring and track apron are open to the public. Simulcast wagering has permanently relocated to the trackside Equestrian Room on the first floor Grandstand. The Track Kitchen is open for breakfast and lunch daily. Due to construction traffic, the public is asked to use the access road to the Track Kitchen rather than drive through the stable area. The stable area is closed during the construction period.
