Keeneland Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
ORDER RESTORED (7) First up after a break of 69 weeks. Started off strong but faded towards the end when 3rd beaten by 2 1/4L last time at Churchill Downs. One of the major players. BY LA RINA (10) Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last time at Churchill Downs. Performing impressively this campaign. Has very good closing speed. Has to be included. ALLISON AVENUE (11) Improved late to finish 4th last start at Churchill Downs. Has the ability to figure. HARD CHAMP (1) Struggled with the pace when 11th last time at Kentucky Downs but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. The large claim from Yomar Ortiz Jr helps. Can win at odds.

Fresh after a 41 week break. At $23.00 lost ground in the run home when 8th last time at Oaklawn Park. First race for a new trainer. Looks hopeful at best.
