Keeneland Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
HEAR THE QUEEN (3) Came in 3rd last time at Kentucky Downs and matched against less formidable competition. Gains the services of jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. Prominent showing expected and won't be far off them. CAVIAR BREAKFAST (1) Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last time at Churchill Downs and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. BUTTONS AND LACE (9) In the money when 3rd last time at Churchill Downs but rising in class. Has run into the money all attempts this campaign. Always seems to find the line well. A win wouldn't surprise. AMBER CASCADE (5) Didn't find the line when 8th last start at Kentucky Downs but competing at a lower level of competition. Possesses very good closing speed. Jockey Flavien Prat adds value. Can win.
