Keeneland | Race 3 | 2:04 pm ET
#8 Ultimate Strike (8-1 morning line odds) gets a major jockey upgrade to Luis Saez for his Keeneland return. He was an apparent easy winner here last fall when jockey Luan Machado misjudged the finish line with a 5-length lead and pulled the horse up too early. Norm Casse trainee comes off a win against easier competition and gets back to a track that he likes.
Win bet #8. Exacta box 8-5 with #5 Overstatement.
Keeneland | Race 6 | 3:40 pm ET
#10 Kicking Clear (6-1 morning line odds) will have no problem with the extended distance to 1-1/8 miles on turf. Trainer Brendan Walsh’s runners were red-hot opening weekend at Keeneland with 5 wins, 2 seconds from 11 starters.
Win bet #10.
