Keeneland Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
MARKET CHILL (2) First up today. Was dominant when winning by a margin of 5L last run at Tampa Bay Downs and gets a favourable draw. Has a nice turn of foot. One of the major hopes. MAJESTICAL (3) Didn't attack the line when 6th last start at Fair Grounds. Giving another chance here and going down in class. Performing impressively this campaign and putting a tidy record together. Respect against this field. QUEENSTOWN (6) Ran on when 2nd last run at Turfway Park. Should be going forward early. Vincent Cheminaud and Eoin G Harty deserve respect together. Not out of this. HONOR AZTECA (4) Was strong late when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last start at Fair Grounds. Will be trying to topple them late. Include in chances.

Odds of $10.00 and faded away late when 5th last time at Gulfstream Park and matched against a less competitive field. Will appreciate a good draw. Significant improvement required.

Back after a spell. Gave nothing else a chance when winning by 5L last run at Tampa Bay Downs and drawn nicely. Stamps its reason for consideration.

At $9.00 didn't find the line when 6th last start at Fair Grounds. Giving another chance here and stepping down to a lower level. Solid career start. Must be considered here.

First run back after break. Started $11.00 and made up ground when 5th last start at Churchill Downs and competing in a lower grade. Returning to more ground. Could not recommend in this.

Did well to run into 2nd last run at Turfway Park. Won't be far away during the run. Watch the market moves.
