Keeneland Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
STADION (10) Debutant 2yo by Olympiad for Cameron Milligan. Betting as a guide. BELZONI (7) Weakened to finish 5th last start at Saratoga. Worth a ticket. PATRIOTS QUEST (11) Below par when 9th last time at Kentucky Downs but honest performer putting a tidy record together. In strong racing shape since returning from a break. Should go close. JUST A HOLIDAY (2) Folded up in the straight when 7th last time at Kentucky Downs but competing in a lower grade. Has plenty of early speed. Irad Ortiz Jr is a plus. No shock to see a win.

Put in a competitive run when placing 3rd beaten by 1L last run at Kentucky Downs and was on debut last time. Gets a favourable gate. Could be in the mix.

Was $6.50 and struggled with the pace when 7th last time at Kentucky Downs but matched against less formidable competition. Should muster plenty of early speed. Drawn nicely. Can measure up against these.

Was $5.50 and improved late to finish 4th last start at Saratoga and having second career run. Stable is in form and going over more ground. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Odds of $16.00 and fairly underwhelming when 6th last time at Kentucky Downs but was a debutant last start. Goes down in grade. Prefer in an easier race.

At $23.00 was found wanting late when 4th last time at Saratoga and having second race start. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Won't find this easy.
