Keeneland Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance Optional Claiming

UNION MIST (6) was thereabouts last time out when third at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1609m, beaten 0.6 lengths. Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and three minor placings from five starts. Among the leading chances. RANDO (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Ellis Park. Couldn't follow that up last time out when sixth over 1609m at Churchill Downs, beaten 3 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SO THERE SHE WAS (4) was never in contention when resuming last start over 1609m at Listed level at Del Mar (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 10 lengths. Will find this much easier. Winning claims on best figures. CLAIRITA (2) is having her second run back from a break after she failed to threaten first up over 1609m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf), beaten 6 lengths. Goes well at this journey with two wins from six starts and cannot be taken lightly.

Sure to run well.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation when last of 9 at Churchill Downs Turf May 15 over 2213m, 8 len behind Unmerited Favor carrying 55.5kg at $6.44. Previous preparation first-up to post a big 8 len win. Turfway Park January 9 over 2012m defeating Plaza Cue with 55.5kg at $5.47. Not good enough for these.
