Keeneland Race 10 - VisitLEX Elkhorn S. Stakes

BURNHAM SQUARE (6) resumed last time out and finished second over 1710m at Gulfstream Park Turf, beaten 2.25 lengths. Ideally placed to score. GRAND SONATA (4) saluted at the first run back from a spell last start over 2213m in the G2 Mac Diarmida Stakes at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf), scoring by half a length. Has been given a let-up of seven weeks since that outing. Has a strong second-up record and he looms as a significant threat. DESVIO (2) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his last appearance in the G2 Red Smith Stakes at Aqueduct Turf (Turf) over 2213m on November 2. Has to be respected. UTAH BEACH (3) was always well back last start at the first run of this campaign and never threatened, finishing ninth over 1811m in the G3 Kentucky Cup Classic Stakes at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Has a strong record here at this journey with two wins from four runs. Among the better hopes.

Second run back. Comes off a 49-day let-up.

Previously second-up second last of 9 at Monmouth Park Turf in the G3 Monmouth Stakes on June 15 2024 over 1811m, 1.75 len behind Fort Washington carrying 53.5kg at $6.60. Even fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
