Keeneland Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
SOLAIA (3) Initial race appearance 3yo by Independence Hall for Nicholas Vaccarezza. Watch early betting. CLOUD NUMBER NINE (8) Good run when placing 3rd beaten by more than 6L last time at Fair Grounds. Large claim helps. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. HOT GAMER (16) Honest race when 2nd last start at Oaklawn Park and fitter for debut run. Irad Ortiz Jr rates highly aboard. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Goes very close. CRYSTAL FROST (9) Gave away some ground when 5th last run at Turfway Park and coming back in distance. Has the ability to figure. Something for the Multiples: GUS'S GAL (5)

Back from a 50 week spell. Was $14.00 and well beaten when 9th last time at Churchill Downs but was a debutant last start. Going over extra ground. Significant improvement required.

Resuming after a break. Jumped at $14.00 and didn't attack the line when 6th last start at Turfway Park. Change in trainer. Should come to hand quickly. Others much better.

Was $43.00 and weakened to finish 7th last start at Turfway Park and down in trip. Likely to be well placed early. Would not recommend.
