Keeneland Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
MAPLE RIDGE (8) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was always well out of her ground over 1609m at Kentucky, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. This is a nice drop in grade so she will be hard to beat. R RUTH OF MY LIFE (1) debuted a month ago when she finished ninth over 1308m at Kentucky (Turf), beaten 11 lengths. Will improve and looks well placed. DOLLY P (10) turned in a moderate effort on debut last start when fifth at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf (Turf) over 1609m, beaten 8 lengths. Shapes as one to consider. KEFKA (11) went forward over 1006m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt) on debut last start but found a couple better. Has the speed to overcome the draw. Do not underestimate.
