A first, two seconds and a third from seven picks wasn’t what we had in mind to kick off Keeneland’s spring meet but with better breaks we could’ve easily had three winners. In Race 1, Dream Fly broke last and came flying late. In Race 3, Magniloquent never fired. In Race 4, Tiz Splendid News ran well, leading into the stretch before being overhauled by Carribean Caper who looks like a filly with a bright future. Gear Jockey won Race 5 for us relatively easily. In Race 6, Stand By You was bumped hard at the start by the favorite, had to close from last and rocketed past 10 other runners to close for third beaten less than two lengths. Breadman ranged up on the turn before weakening in the drive. Chione stalked the pace in Race 10 before wilting in the drive.
We look ahead to stakes action across the country as Saturday is our main prep day for the Kentucky Derby here in the States. We have the Grade 2 Wood Memorial from Aqueduct, the Grade 2 Toyota Blue Grass from Keeneland and the Grade 1 Santa Anita Derby from Santa Anita among several other graded stakes.
