#2 AVA’S STORM (4-1) |
Didn’t duplicate improved try two back, gets blinkers, good value play. |

Set pace long way in turf-to-dirt route, breezed 4F in :35-4/5 at Keeneland. |
#1 BOLT ON THE ROCKS (6-1) |
Showed a pulse in pair of 6F sprints, added ground a plus. |
Race Summary |
Taking a stand against morning-line favorite GREYHOUND STATION, who just missed in her only start for a $30,000 tag sprinting but whose company in that race was horrible. Save for the fourth-place finisher who broke her maiden for $15,000 and won again for $25,000, her four other rivals are a combined 0-for-9 since then, beaten a combined 170 lengths. AVA’S STORM gets the call on the class drop with blinkers on for the first time. She improved in a solid MSW field on Turfway Park’s all-weather track, then took money but raced evenly behind $91k earner Sassy Walker, who earned her top speed figure that day. Bet to win and place. |
