Keeneland Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CAMILA CATALINA (1) Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Improved to place when 3rd last run at Turfway Park and promising career start. Julien R Leparoux takes the reins today. Definite claims. SIPPIN PRETTY (4) Comprehensive victory when winning by 3 3/4L last start at Gulfstream Park. Shows good early pace. Irad Ortiz Jr is a key engagement. Will give a big sight. SWING VOTE (3) Was well beaten when 6th last run at Gulfstream Park. Expecting improvement and promising career start. Very competitive this campaign but up against a more competitive field. Strong each way bet. GENA B (5) Made all when winning by 5 1/2L last run at Aqueduct and good career start. Should be going forward early. Flavien Prat rates highly aboard. Likely to fill a place.

Good effort to place 3rd last run at Oaklawn Park and has a good draw. Amongst the placegetters at every start this campaign and promising career start. Rough hope.

At $4.33 looked outclassed when 6th last run at Gulfstream Park. Expecting improvement and promising career start. Racing in stronger company. Back to a shorter trip. Could take this out.

Was dominant when winning by 3 3/4L last start at Gulfstream Park. Expecting to settle positively. Irad Ortiz Jr is a key booking. Strong claims in this.

Went to the front and never looked back to win by a margin of 5 1/2L last run at Aqueduct and solid career start. Displays good tactical speed. Has some claims.

First up from a break. Reeled them in when winning last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis and putting a tidy record together. Down in distance. Not threatening these.

Jumped at $7.50 and below par performance when 5th last run at Fair Grounds but taking on easier opposition. Hard to see this being competitive today.
