Keeneland Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight
DYNA (10) First up after 21 weeks and just shy of the win first up last preparation at Woodbine. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. This field suits. TWIRLING DAISY (13) D Whitworth Beckman trained 3yo by Twirling Candy having first race start. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr adds value. Betting as a guide. PASEO (3) Close to claiming the win last start at Gulfstream Park and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Must be considered. ISLAND GIRL (7) Improved to place when 2nd last start at Turfway Park and solid career start. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Finishes off strongly. In the mix.

Was $7.50 and made up ground when 5th last run at Fair Grounds and has minimal work to do from the gate. A demanding task.

Resuming. Ran home into 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start at Gulfstream Park and will try to take advantage of the gate. Jockey Flavien Prat is a strong choice aboard. Good chance at a nice price.

Odds of $14.00 and didn't find the line when 7th last start at Fair Grounds. Not likely to be troubling the more fancied runners today.
