Keeneland Race 7 - Race 7 - Mdn Special Weight
LIGHT HALO (4) showed good early speed last start on debut and fought on well to hold third, beaten 4 lengths, over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Improver who looks a major player. LADY CHANEL (8) stepped out for her debut over 1006m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) back on May 15 and finished fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths. Blinkers come off. Looks hard to beat.
