simplistically, a metaphor uses something that is not closely associated as a comparison " the leaves square danced across the courtyard".
A metonymy uses a word that is closely associated with the word. Here the word "turf" is closely associated with horse racing and is used.

Yes. Keep one's eyes peeled is a metaphor. (We can peel apples, oranges, etc.; thankfully we can't peel eyes.)
