Race 1
#1 Art of Almost
#4 Niigon’s Spin
#2 She’s Proud
#6 Vagary
#1 ART OF ALMOST exits a pair of very good races on
turf at Keeneland. In the most recent start she got a very
wide trip, dueled for the lead in the stretch and gave way
in the final furlong. She can be tough with a better trip. #4
NIIGON’S SPIN showed speed in her debut, then fell
back and had to steady midway around the second turn
but came back again in the stretch and galloped out well.
The winner returned to win a first level allowance with a
77 Beyer last week. #2 SHE’S PROUD passed quite a
few tiring foes in her debut on turf at Gulfstream but did
not fare well on dirt at Keeneland. There could be a fairly
hot pace for her to close into. #6 VAGARY was a non
threat against the impressive debut winner Ciuri in a
sprint on April 28. Her pedigree suggests routing could be
good for her and she may improve with experience.
Race 2
#4 Bangor Ridge
#1 Drink in My Hand
#5 Smooth Talk
#2 Cummings Road
#4 BANGOR RIDGE got a wide stalking trip trying to
chase a lone speed Tampa shipper on a day where the
rail was gold when flattening out to be fourth. He is very
versatile in terms of running style. #1 DRINK IN MY
HAND had a winter fitness edge in a four horse field in
which he was heavily favoured and just got up to win after
looking empty turning for home on May 3. This is a bit
tougher of a group. #5 SMOOTH TALK was a lone speed
winner against $40,000 non-winners of three. His winning
Beyer fits but he may have to deal with early pace
pressure. #2 CUMMINGS ROAD will make his 10 year
old debut here. He comes off of a two-win season racing
primarily between the $5,000 and $12,500 levels with
competitive speed figures.
Race 3
#2 Calais Cat
#1 Love Daddy
#6 Queen Andher Court
#7 Julie’s Tap Dancer
#2 CALAIS CAT showed good closing interest in her first
two career starts but has yet to live up to those early
races. She now drops and will try turf for the first time. #1
LOVE DADDY closed well in both of her juvenile starts
with very solid Beyers for this group. She will stretch out
to a route for her first start of the season. #6 QUEEN
ANDHER COURT was not bad in her lone turf start to
date when finishing sixth against maiden special weight
foes last year. She was run down late for the win two
weeks ago. #7 JULIE’S TAP DANCER got a perfect trip,
sitting last in a race where every other foe lined up
attempting to make the lead, then rallied to be second
behind a heavily favoured, winter raced foe. Sligo Bay
has been a productive turf route producer.
Race 4
#8 Fat N Bitter – Best Bet
#6 Classy Vision
#4 Broadway Bonnie
#7 Sweet Brynlie
#8 FAT N BITTER won back to back $16,000 events at
Tampa before engaging in a three horse duel against
allowance foes in her first start off of the claim, finishing a
decent fifth on that day. If she takes to the synthetic she
could surprise. #6 CLASSY VISION was last early and
passed a few in the stretch last time out. She will be
hoping for pace to close into. #4 BROADWAY BONNIE
was rapidly making up ground on a tiring leader when
missing by a nose for this price on April 26, earning a
field-best 71 Beyer. #7 SWEET BRYNLIE was a decent
third racing against the bias to kick off the season but
failed to threaten in the drive last time out and will now
take the drop in for $25,000.
Race 5
#6 Trebek
#8 Gold Sting
#3 Rockbarton
#2 Sandretti
#6 TREBEK broke his maiden in a turf sprint where he
opened up a large lead setting rapid fractions and never
really being threatened. He is probably the fastest horse
here and could be tough to run down if allowed to set his
quick tempo. #8 GOLD STING ran well in a pair of turf
routes at Tampa over the winter before failing to threaten
in a start at Laurel. He cuts back to a sprint which is
probably more suitable to him. #3 ROCKBARTON was a
disappointing favourite for $7,500 on the Tapeta to kick
off the season. He returns to the turf which appears to be
his preferred surface. #2 SANDRETTI broke his maiden
for $32,000 in August but tailed off after some attempts
against tougher foes. He now takes a drop and tries turf
for the first time.

Race 6
#10 Irish You Luck
#2 Kewanne
#11 Banana Rama
#4 Double Crossed
#10 IRISH YOU LUCK finished third behind two winter
conditioned foes for $25,000 to kick off the season on
May 4 and now takes the next step down the class
ladder. #2 KEWANNE tailed off in her last couple of starts
last year but kicked off that campaign with a handful of
efforts that would be competitive with this group. #11
BANANA RAMA closed from last and was only ¼ length
behind Irish You Luck on May 4. The pace may be a little
slow for her to close into. #4 DOUBLE CROSSED has
raced against the bias in both of her starts this year,
racing wide on a gold rail first time out then saving ground
on a dead rail on May 10. She removes blinkers and is a
speed threat.
Race 7
#6 Gwendoline H
#11 Madison Way
#7 Midnight Brew
#9 Touch of Emma
#6 GWENDOLINE H was an easy winner at this level on
May 5. She now gets onto the turf, a surface she has won
half of her six starts over. #11 MADISON WAY was a bit
of an even third last time out when racing wide on a day
where the rail may have been at an advantage. She has
raced well on turf in the past. #7 MIDNIGHT BREW
started off 2018 in tremendous form but tailed off by the
end of the season. If she returns to that early season
form for her first start of the season she will be very
competitive. #9 TOUCH OF EMMA wrapped up 2018 with
a fairly easy win against non-winners of three in a race
where none of the pacesetters were factors in the finish.
She has a win on turf.
Race 8
#9 Documented
#2 Miss Danielle
#4 Find the Cat
#5 Slydini
#9 DOCUMENTED debuts as a four year old at the
bottom level. Of five siblings to race, four of them are
winners including debut winner Regal Mark. #2 MISS
DANIELLE ran wide against the bias for $25,000 in her
first start of the season. She then removed blinkers on a
drop to $15,000, got another wide trip and failed to
threaten. The blinkers go back on and she takes another
drop. #4 FIND THE CAT has gotten hooked in speed
duels in both of her starts this year. She will likely show
speed again but might be better off sitting just off of
Slydini. #5 SLYDINI was favoured for $25,000 last week,
showing speed but weakening in the stretch. She returns
at the bottom on short rest.
Race 9
#6 Vesperanza
#13 Katla’s Fury
#12 Grey Seal
#11 Silent Tango
#1 Echo in the Forest
#6 VESPERANZA made up some ground in her debut
but flattened out second time out when adding blinkers
and making a wide bid on the turn. The blinkers come off
for her turf debut. #13 KATLA’S FURY ran a good third
second time out behind a tough pair of Ontario Sired
foes. She didn’t fare as well in her next two starts when
adding blinkers; they come off today. #12 GREY SEAL
ran well in her first two starts when closing at a route,
then faltered when showing a bit more speed in her third
start. She was then put on the bench until March 1 where
she was a non-factor at Gulfstream. She drops in for a
tag and sprints for the first time. #11 SILENT TANGO just
got up for third in a short field in her first start after
attracting a $19,000 claim. She ran well in both of her
starts on turf last year. #1 ECHO IN THE FOREST raced
wide against the bias and was beaten less than two
lengths for second on opening day. She now tries turf for
the first time.
