Keeneland | Race 3 | 2:04 pm ET
#5 Gilmore (9-2 morning line odds) stretches out distance from a sprint to a route on the same pattern that produced a victory at Keeneland over this distance during the 2024 fall meet. Jockey Jose Ortiz is contending for the top of the standings halfway through the current Keeneland stand.
Win bet #5.
Keeneland | Race 6 | 3:40 pm ET
#8 Trust Issues (15-1 morning line odds) has a legitimate long-shot look on a fast track. His record appears to be inconsistent, but wet tracks and attempts on synthetic or grass surfaces have clouded his form. He’s been rock solid on fast dirt like is expected Wednesday. Luis Saez has ridden him twice, getting a win and a second-place finish.
Win-place bet #8.
