Keeneland Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Special Weight
TIME IN MOTION (9) is a promising maiden who looks close to a win, finishing fourth on debut then placing over 1710m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf) last time out. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. BOLD SPEAKER (11) has raced twice. Was second on debut then clocked-in 9 lengths from the winner in fourth last time out over 1609m at Kentucky. Has the addition of blinkers. Rates highly on debut effort and should go well. EPIC ROLL (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1609m at Kentucky after being in contention on the turn. Has the class to figure prominently. RIVELLI (7) is a promising type who was in the placings on debut before a fourth last time over 1609m at Kentucky (Turf). Well placed and can feature in the finish.
