Keeneland Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
LIVELAUGHLOY (8) Career debut 2yo by Jack Christopher for trainer Aaron M West. Follow the money. CURLIN'S COURT (4) Racing as a debutant 2yo by Global Campaign for Kenneth G Mcpeek. Watch the market. ORO ESTRELLA (3) Picked up late ground when 2nd beaten by more than 7L last time at Churchill Downs. Will be hitting the line strongly. In the mix. PRINCESS CHANTY (5) Was amongst the placegetters when 3rd last start at Churchill Downs. Will be positive in the run early. Luis Fuenmayor takes a large claim. Goes close.

Jumped at $43.00 and disappointing run when 11th last start at Kentucky Downs but will try to take advantage of the alley. Does take a while to get into stride. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Managed to run into 3rd beaten by nearly 10L last start at Churchill Downs. Should muster plenty of early speed. Large claim helps. Rates as one of the key chances.

At $14.00 lacklustre showing when 10th last time at Churchill Downs but having second race start. Expected to settle towards the tail. Very minor chance.

At $14.00 finished 6th last time at Saratoga and down in trip. Has a great burst of speed late. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr is a bonus. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

First up after a break. Jumped at $5.00 and moderate showing when 6th last run at Evangeline Downs but fitter for debut run. First start for a new trainer. Tough ask.
