Annotated Bibliography - Keeneland group

Annotated Bibliography

  • ·      Interview(s) with jockey(s).

We will try to interview a jockey and ask him about what horse racing means to him. We would like to hear the importance that horses and horse racing have to him and his opinion on Keeneland. Our documentary hopes to capture the sentiment and passion of Keeneland, so hearing a jockey tell us what it means to him to race horses and come to this particular track would help in portraying that.
  • ·      Interview(s) with member(s) of racing office and media team.

Along with jockeys, we will try to interview members of the communications and media team and racing offices. We will ask them similar questions about their opinions and feelings towards Keeneland, as well as what aspects of it drew them to working there. Again, getting such information from people who work within would be helpful and could give us an insight into what Keeneland means. Hearing why someone loved Keeneland so much that they decided to work there could be a good addition to our documentary.
  • ·      Interviews with commoners

We will also try to get some interviews with regular people who are simply paying a visit to the tracks. Like the other interviews we will conduct, we will be asking about the emotions and sentiment, if any, that people attach with a visit to Keeneland. Ideally, we would like to get an interview with an older person who has been visiting Keeneland for years and holds a lot of value in an annual trip there. Again, an insight into the everyday person’s life to see why they come to Keeneland would be good for our film.
  • ·      Old racing clips from Keeneland


We could potentially use clips of past races and events at Keeneland to incorporate in our film.  It could show the history and pageantry of the track and give viewers an idea of how long Keeneland has been running and how much history has taken place at this track.
