Furlong Friday at Keeneland

Breeder's Cup begins. For Furlong Friday we take a look at a nice sprint in the second race of the 2015 Breeder's Cup Championship card.

Keeneland Race 2 {6 furlongs~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}

A very competitive field of nine will take to the dirt in this high level allowance race. There is an abundance of speed which might open it up for a gal that likes to come from off the pace. Speed numbers are extremely close. A few in here have had ample rest to make a good go of it. It should be a prelude to the exciting championship races later on the card.

#5 Titanium (Lanerie / Moquett) might have the advantage with her tracking running style. She holds the second highest last out speed number at a longer sprint. She does love the Keeneland track having hit the board in both of her starts here.
$2 SHOW.

#9 Smooth Caramel (Pedroza / Montano) should challenge with the third highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and two solid peaking workouts. She has raced to a victory over the Keeneland track. This gal should close to the pace ready to strike.

#7 Chanteline (Santana / Asmussen) should contend with a couple of good last out speed numbers and three robust workouts.  She holds the highest (tie) speed number at the distance achieving a 100% in the money record from four starts.

#1 Street Blush (Rosario / Nicks) will be looking to make a mark in her second start coming off a win at first asking. She shares the highest speed number at the distance which also is the highest last out speed number. This lass has put in three steady workouts. Look for her to track the pace ready to move.
