Superfecta Sunday at Keeneland

We take in a competitive graded stakes Turf race down in Kentucky.

Keeneland Race 8 {Dowager Stakes~G3~1 1/2 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~Fillies/Mares~Graded Stakes}

A good field of ten will hit the Kentucky green in this annual affair. There is decent speed to assure a fluid pace. Speed numbers are reasonably close. A few will be stretching out to this distance for the first time. Our task is to link together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket. It should be a fantastic race.

#10 Grateful (Franco / Pletcher) might have the edge with the highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and three sturdy workouts. This gal has already won at this distance and has traveled over the Keeneland course well. She is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.

#7 Apple Betty [IRE] (J. Velazquez / McGaughey) will challenge with the third highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and four strong workouts. She holds the second highest speed number at this distance and is 50% in the money from four tries at the same. She should be part of the speed scenario.

#2 Lottie (J. Ortiz / Motion) will contend with the fourth highest last out speed number and three hearty workouts. She holds the highest speed number at the distance hitting the board at same in her only two attempts. This gal should track and close solidly.

#6 Promotional (Lanerie / Proctor) should also contend with a couple of very good last out speed numbers and three superb workouts. She holds the third highest speed number at the distance. She should track the pace ready to roll into the stretch.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#10 Grateful  +  #7 Apple Betty  +  #2 Lottie  +  #6 Promotional.
