The Breeders Cup is only a week away. For the start of our horse racing weekend, we begin with a terrific Turf race.
Keeneland Race 8 {1 3/16 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}
A great group of ten gals will hit the Turf in this feature allowance. There is no speed in this race. Consequently, expect a Euro-style run with a quickening in the turn for home. Speed numbers are closely matched making for a highly competitive event. It should be a magnificent Turf race.
#5 Dating Lady Luck (Mena / Stall) should go off as the deserved favorite. She holds the highest last out speed number at a longer turf route and two good workouts. This gal is one of only two that have traversed this distance scoring the highest speed number at the distance and over the surface. She should be tracking the pace closely.
$1 WIN / $2 SHOW.
Other Wagering Interests
#2 My Senses (McCarthy / Motion) should challenge with the second highest (tie) last out speed number, a three race progression, and two stout workouts. She appears in great form and will be stretching out for this race. She is another that will be in the track pack.
#3 Giant Deduction (Geroux / Block) should contend with a couple of good last out speed numbers and two strong workouts. She is dropping in distance for this turf battle coming off a race at Kentucky Downs. Look for her to track the pace as well.
#6 Valseuse (Santana / Lukas) should be in the mix sharing the second highest last out speed number at a longer Turf route, working a three race progression, and putting four superb peaking workouts. This gal is another tracking type.
10 CENT Superfecta
#5 Dating Lady Luck / #2 My Senses / #3 Giant Deduction / #6 Valseuse.

Superfecta Sunday at Keeneland
Staying on at beautiful Keeneland for our Superfecta Sunday play.
Keeneland Race 8 {Dowager~G3~1 1/2 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Graded Stakes}
A very talented group of ten gals will go to the Turf in this annual affair. It comes up light on speed though there are a couple ladies that enjoy being forwardly placed. Speed numbers are fairly close making this tussle a highly competitive one. Our task is to sew together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.
#1 Kitten's Point (Prado / Motion) appears to be the deserved favorite. She holds the second highest (tie) last out speed number, a two race progression and two steady workouts. This gal should be tracking the pace closely ready to spring into the stretch. She is 75% in the money at this distance.
#8 Ceisteach [IRE] (Van Dyke / Proctor) should challenge with third highest last out speed number and one endurance producing workout. She loves the turf and enjoyed success in her one outing over the Keeneland Turf. She has the tactical speed to settle anywhere with in the pace including possibly wiring this field. This gal is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.
#6 Trophee [FR] (Leparoux / Clement) will challenge mightily with the highest (tie) last out speed number, a four race progression, and two robust workouts. She should track the pace and strike in the stretch. This girl will be stretching out to this distance for the first time.
#2 Uanamon (Castanon / Attfield) could surprise with a couple of very good last out speed numbers and three tremendous workouts. She is 56% in the money from sixteen career starts. Should an enduring pace develop, she will be closing fast.
10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)
#1 Kitten's Point + #8 Ceisteach + #6 Trophee [FR] + #2 Uanamon.
Friday's Results
Gulfstream Park West R5. Maiden Special Weight. Our pick, Ginger Rush, finished 3rd for show money of $3.40. Superfecta went 6-2-7-3.
Bankroll gained a few dimes to settle at $11.81.

California Calls
Opening up our horse racing weekend we take a look at an optional claimer at Santa Anita. Warm California calls as the gale winds of November are around the corner here in Chicago.
Santa Anita Race 7 {1 mile~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Optional Claiming}
This promises to be a great little race with a field of nine making the start. All entrants have exceptionally good work tabs making it quite a challenge to see who will put in a better effort.
#8 Spirit Seeker (Bejarano / Hollendorfer) has an edge with the highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two robust, peaking workouts. She should share speed duties and could easily wire this field.
$2 SHOW.
#10 Ambitioness (Talamo / Diodoro) will challenge with the second highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and two athletic, peaking workouts. She will track and pounce in the stretch.
$2 SHOW.
Other Wagering Interests
#2 She's Very Rare (Flores / Garcia) will be moving up in distance from her last showing the third highest last out speed number. She also holds a three race progression and has put in four strong workouts. This gal should be forwardly place ready to take advantage of any weakening of the front runners.
#3 Smart Striking (Smith / Callaghan) will be making her first dirt start. She holds the second highest speed number at the distance, albeit on Turf. Her last out was a longer route and she has put in three superb, peaking workouts. It appears that she will track the pace before launching a nice closing drive.
10 CENT Superfecta
#8 Spirit Seeker / #10 Ambitioness / #2 She's Very Rare / #3 Smart Striking.

Keeneland Sunday Turf
A rough and tumble horse racing weekend comes to a close and we take a look at a great Turf race at beautiful Keeneland.
Keeneland Race 8 {Dowager~1 1/2 mile~Turf~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
A chance of rain today could put a damper on this most excellent Turf race. It is an outstanding full field of twelve making for an exciting race. All of these gals will be moving up in distance from their last and the vast majority have not raced this "marathon" distance. As an added bonus some of the greatest Turf trainers will line up their conditionees in this stakes race.
#11 Askbut I Won'ttell (Leparoux / Block) looks to have the edge with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and three superb, peaking workouts. She should track and close down this field.
$2 SHOW.
#1 Cheetah [GB] (Gomez / Clement) will postit a mighty challenge with the third highest (tie) last out speed number and three sturdy workouts. Watch for her to close speedily from the clouds.
$2 SHOW.
#8 Endless Expanse [IRE] (Sanchez / Clement) could be the big surprise with the fourth highest (tie) last out speed number and two solid workouts. She also holds the third highest speed number at the distance while being 66% in the money over three races. She is another closer that have an impact with running room. We toss a bronze horseshoe to her.
$2 SHOW.
Other Wagering Interests
#9 Speak Easy Gal (Bridgmohan / Wolfson) can be expected to share front end duties. Should she be able to tamp down the pace, she could figure prominently at the wire. She holds the second highest speed number at the distance and has put in three good workouts.
#10 Upperline (Graham / Stidham) could track and pounce for a solid piece of the purse pie. She holds the highest speed number over the Turf and has put together two endurance building workouts. She could be in there at the finish.
Saturday's Stakes Results
Keeneland R9. Lexus Raven Run. Our first pick, Roman Treasure, finished 12th (last). Our second pick,
Great Hot [BRZ], won (1st) for show money of $3.80. Our third pick, Honey Chile, finished 11th.
Superfecta went 4-2-8-12.
