Keeneland Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
MADONNA OF LORETO (5) bounced back last start and scored by 1.5 lengths after being prominent at the bend as public elect over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can make it back-to-back wins. JUSTINQUESO (1) pushed forward and led throughout to score a 4 length win over 1207m at Colonial Downs (Dirt) last time. Should be ridden forward again and expected to go very well. STRONG STATE (6) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling out the back and failing to feature when fifth over 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt). Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SILENT LAW (4) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1408m last time, finishing sixth and beaten 10 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
