Keeneland Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
GRAY EMINENCE (6) Cyberknife 2yo having first start for trainer Arnaud Francois Delacour. Flavien Prat rates highly aboard. Respect the betting. BREEZY (15) Girvin 2yo trained by William Walden on debut. Watch the market. CANDY PANCAKES (3) Back from a spell. Placed 3rd last start at Ellis Park and was a debutant last start. Should come to hand quickly. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr is highly regarded. Underrated. DELIGHTFUL DIVA (5) Finished 3rd last time at Kentucky Downs. Should muster plenty of early toe. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race.

At $6.00 edged past some when finishing 4th last run at Kentucky Downs and having second career run. Has minimal work to do from the draw. Betting is the best guide.

Started at $18.00 and closed off nicely when 5th last start at Churchill Downs and was a debutant last start. Likely to get back. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.

Resuming after a break. Finished 3rd last start at Ellis Park and having second career run. Has early speed and positions nicely. Irad Ortiz Jr is a plus. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.

Arnaud Francois Delacour trained 2yo by Cyberknife having first race appearance. Flavien Prat is a suitable booking. Keep your eye on the market.

Was $8.50 and ran 4th last start at Kentucky Downs but having second race start. Has the speed to overcome the wide draw. Appears tested.

Finished amongst the placegetters when 3rd last time at Kentucky Downs. Mario Gutierrez and Brian A Lynch are usually a competitive duo. Could be in the mix.

Was $16.00 and disappointing effort when 9th last start at Kentucky Downs but fitter for debut run. Likely to settle back in the field. Few more classier types in this race.
