Keeneland Race 8 - Jessamine S. Presented By Keeneland Sales Stakes
SENECA PARK (5) Charged home to win last time at Kentucky Downs. Hasn't put a foot wrong this campaign with 2 wins from as many starts. Should muster plenty of early speed. Respect. PROS AND CONS (1) Rattled home nicely into 3rd beaten by 4 3/4L last start at Saratoga and drawn well. Has run into the money at every start this campaign and solid career start. Has to be included. MONIQUE EN VOL (3) Rocketed home when winning last run at Kentucky Downs and was on debut last time. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr rates highly aboard but competing in a more challenging grade. Among better hopes. GLYCOGEN (6) Romped home to win last start at Saratoga and putting a tidy record together. Made it 2 wins in succession but matched against a stronger field. Can win.

Bold effort when winning last run at Kentucky Downs and was a debutant last start. Irad Ortiz Jr rates highly but facing a stronger class. Chance and can measure up.

Dashed home to win last time at Kentucky Downs. Flawless this preparation with 2 wins from 2 runs. Has shown early pace in races to date. Can measure up against these.

Romped home to win last start at Saratoga and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Unbeaten last 2 starts but competing at a higher grade. Competitive type.

Set the tempo when winning by 2 3/4L last start at Saratoga and was a debutant last start. Should be going forward early. Up against tougher rivals. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Was a comprehensive winner by 3 1/4L last time at Kentucky Downs and having second career run. Likely to settle back in the field. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.

Reeled them in to win last start at Horseshoe Indianapolis and was on debut last time. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Watch the betting.

Even though fading at the finish still grabbed 3rd last time at Kentucky Downs but up against stronger rivals. Has not missed the money this preparation in 4 attempts. Will be tested in this.

Did well to run into 2nd last time at Colonial Downs but testing ability against stronger contenders. Placed at every start this campaign. Gets a chance against these.
