Keeneland Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance
TOUCH OF FIRE (1) did a good job last start to finish second in Listed grade at Fairgrounds Turf (Turf) over 1710m, beaten 1.3 lengths. Cherry-ripe now. Nice alley and is sure to run well. TACTICALITY (5) ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 1609m at Gulfstream Park Turf after being in the firing line on the corner. Meets some better types this time but a win is not out of the question. KNOTY KNICKS (13) hasn't been far away recently including last time out when third over 1609m at Listed level at Tampa Bay Downs Turf (Turf). Racing well without winning and gets his chance to break through. PATROL SQUAD SIX (16) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten half a length, over 1609m at Gulfstream Park Turf. Top-three prospects.
