Keeneland Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
CANDY PANCAKES (3) settled back on debut last start then made a dash forward before the turn and stuck on well to finish third over 1609m at Ellis Park Turf (Turf). Jumps from a good draw and is worth following up. SUCKER FOR LOOKS (9) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 1308m at Kentucky (Turf) in a tougher race. Likely improver so a big run is anticipated. NUCCIA (8) was prominent to the corner on debut last start but weakened to finish fourth over 1609m at Kentucky (Turf). Winning claims. DELIGHTFUL DIVA (5) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1609m at Kentucky, beaten 5 lengths. Placed to advantage so anticipating another big run.
