Stakes Saturday at Beautiful Keeneland

Beautiful Keeneland is the place for tremendous horse racing on this Stakes Saturday.

Keeneland Race 9 {Raven Run~G2~7 Furlongs~3 year-old~Fillies~Graded Stakes}

A supremely successful field of ten young ladies will go to the gate in this annual affair. There is enough speed to keep the pace rolling. Speed numbers are very close making this race highly competitive. Half the field is making their first start over the Keeneland track. It should be a thrilling race.

#11 Irish Mischief (M. Smith / B. Cox) might have the edge with three good last out speed numbers and two efficient workouts. This gal should be forwardly placed full of run. She holds the fourth highest speed number of this group. A daughter of Into Mischief, she is 88% in the money from nine career starts.
$1 WIN  /  $2 PLACE  /  $3 SHOW.

#1 Royal Charlotte (Gaffalione  / C. Brown) could go off as the favorite with the highest last out speed number and four strong workouts. She has five wins from six career starts. Look for her to be tracking the pace closely. A daughter of Cairo Prince, she has already posted a win over the Keeneland track.
$1 PLACE  /  $2 SHOW.

#9 Horologist (Bravo / Baltas) should challenge with the fourth highest last out speed number at a route and one bullet workout. She should be close to the front running crew. A daughter of Gemologist, she is an impressive 90% in the money over the surface from ten starts.
$1 SHOW.

#8 First Star (Van Dyke / R. Ellis) should contend with a couple of good last out speed numbers in her only two starts and four superb workouts. This gal comes in from California after running a route at Del Mar last out. A daughter of First Dude, she has won both of her career starts.
