Keeneland Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden Special Weight
CIVIL LIBERTY (8) Narrowly beaten last time at Santa Anita and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Likely to be well placed early. Strong chance. SYMBOL (5) Initial appearance 3yo by Silver State for Jr Thomas Drury. Watch for a sign in the market. ASSOCIATED (4) Resuming. Ran well when 2nd last time at Tampa Bay Downs and putting a tidy record together. Will be pushing for a forward position early. This field suits. CRITERIA (6) Came in 5th last run at Gulfstream Park. Should muster plenty of early toe. Flavien Prat adds value. Underrated.

Did well to run into 2nd beaten by 2L last start at Turfway Park and has drawn to do little work. Should jump out and bowl along. Likely to be an exotics contender.

Back from a break. Nice run when 2nd last time at Tampa Bay Downs and showing consistent performance in races. Expecting to settle positively. Competitive type.

Started $3.20 and finished 5th last run at Gulfstream Park. Won't be far away during the run. Great to see jockey Flavien Prat taking the ride. Chance and can measure up.

Missed by a narrow margin last time at Santa Anita and promising career start. Should race on the speed. Should be in the finish.

Jumped at $10.00 and pushed past some when 4th last time at Oaklawn Park. First start for a new trainer. Will be trying to topple them late. Marginal prospect.
