Keeneland Race 5 {1 1/8 mile~OFF the TURF~4 year-old Up~Allowance}
The field has been reduced to six in this high quality event. Consequently, we will chuck our usual Superfecta Sunday box and create a prudent 10 CENT Superfecta ticket. There are a few in this one that like to be forwardly placed which should yield a good quickening heading into the stretch. Speed numbers are very close. The remaining group of six should make a very competitive event.
#5 Team Colors (Geroux / Sweazy) might have the edge with the highest speed number over wet conditions and two solid peaking workouts. Also, he holds the highest speed number at the distance. A son of Street Cry [IRE], he should track and close gallantly. He is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$1 SHOW.
#10 Jess I Am (Bridgmohan / B. Cox) will challenge with the second highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two hearty workouts. He is another that has raced confidently over wet, holding a 50% in the money record from four runs. A son of Eskendreya, he could be the pace setter.
#6 Italian Charm (Graham / Maker) should be a contender with the second highest speed number at the distance and a powerful workout tab of three peaking works. A son of Gio Ponti, he raced well over sloppy conditions at the Fair Grounds, last out.
10 CENT Superfecta
#5 Team Colors / #10 Jess I Am, #6 Italian Charm / ALL / ALL.
