1st Race
Top Picks #4, #2 and #6
#4 Dream Machine's last Beyer Speed figure is much the best of this field. Hard to look past. #2 Commentate adds Lasix for his 2nd career start. He shows sharp works over the local going. #6 Noble Anthem add blinkers for this event and he too has several sharp works over the Keeneland main course.
2nd Race
Top Picks #1, #4 and #6
#1 Chancery is the early 8-5 favorite. He was a clear winner at first asking and has since posted a bullet work over the track. #4 Never Sleep fell apart in his last over the Kentucky Downs course but back on dirt here. Two back he was a gate to wire winner sprinting on the dirt. #6 Maker of Mischief showed promise in his debut win.
3rd Race
Top Picks #11, #4 and #3
#11 Tulip just missed at this distance last out after showing the way. Expect another front end performance and could prove tough to catch this time. #4 Paseo while taking her time getting the maiden win, do note she hasn't missed a check in 6 starts this year. This distance should suit her closing stride and like that Hernandez has been in the irons for every start this year. #3 Market Chill comes over with the formidable team of the Brown barn and Irad Ortiz in the irons. A good one to use in exotics.
4th Race
Top Picks #4, #2 and #3
#4 Durante is 2nd off the layoff and expect him to improve off that one. He is a tough competitor that has kept the best of company in past form and has held his own. Like that Irad Ortiz, Jr lands here. #2 Floodlites is the early 7-5 favorite that can boast being 2 for 2 over the Keeneland dirt. Top connections bring him over. #3 C K Wonder a winner in his last start posting a strong 90 Beyer Speed figure. He is a player.
5th Race
Top Picks #2, #9 and #10
#2 Render Judgment has been in good form this year and this looks like a spot that should suit him. Consistent Beyers in the 90s and like his chances. #9 Bullard exits Graded stakes company and should appreciate the drop in class. Competitive at this level in past form and have to keep in the mix. #10 Who Dey seldom misses a spot on the board. Just missed in his last and expect him to show up sharp here.
6th Race
Top Picks #10, #6 and #3
#10 Doncho was beaten a neck to finish 3rd in his last facing Grade 2 company. He caught a tough trip down the lane in that one with the 2nd place finisher being disqualified. He's looking to get the win here. #6 Joe Shiesty has consistently posted triple digit Beyers in recent form. He has the early foot to show the way and the field will have to chase him down. #3 No Nay Hudson is a Graded Stakes winner and is proven over the Keeneland lawn. This hardknocking gelding always deserves a look.
7th Race
Top Picks #6, #7 and #1
#6 Eclatant is the early 6-5 favorite and is 2 for 2 over the Keeneland main track. She faltered in her last but look for her to get back track with Irad Ortiz back in the irons. #7 Echo Sound is a MGSW that is capable of bringing a strong run down the lane. She's the one to use at 5-2 or better. #1 Praying won this race last year and although her last 2 races haven't been successful still would keep her in exotics.
8th Race
Top Picks #8, #4 and #10
#8 Segesta loves the Keeneland grass and this distance. She's a winner of over $1.6 million and like her to pick up another Grade 1 here. #4 Expensive Queen dead heated with Segesta for the win in the Grade 1 JennyWiley here in the spring. She is 3 for 3 this year and comes into this race fresh. #10 Bless the Broken is another winner of over $1.6 million and has been keeping the toughest of company. Shouldn't be overlooked.
9th Race
Top Picks #1, #2 and #6
#1 Coach Pope smoked his competition to break his maiden last out. Word is he is the real deal. #2 Q B Rocket was an easy gate to wire winner in his debut. $1.5 million Keeneland September yearling purchase. #6 American History another big debut winner for the Pletcher team.
10th Race
Top Picks #9, #3 and #2
#9 Zulu Kingdom can boast triple digit Beyer Speed figures in his last 2 races and can't bet against him here. #3 Rhetorical won this race last year and has kept up his Graded Stakes competitiveness since. He is 2nd off the layoff and looks capable of a repeat win. #2 Brilliant Berti is a distance specialist and a solid contender.
11th Race
Top Picks #3, #1 and #11
#3 Rock Your Dreams has an impressive work tab over the Keeneland main course. Looks the part. #1 Niosa has been turning in solid works for her debut. Inside post could be tough but give her a look. #11 Life On Marz has a shot to land a share.
