đź’Ł KEENELAND

Race 9 - #7 Kihei Kiana | 12-1 morning lineFinished fourth after a wide trip last time, ahead of both Sock Monkey and She’s Good Trouble. There’s enough here to make her interesting at a double-digit price. Hunk likes a little trouble—especially when it pays admission.


Race 9 — #3 Sock Monkey | 8-1 morning lineThe last dirt effort was ugly, but the earlier turf third came despite trouble. This is a rebound call, with a real question about whether she can deliver on dirt. The name says toy department. The assignment says demolition crew.


*Morning-line odds; watch the actual price. Two alternatives in the same race, each with something to prove.



đź’Ł BELMONT

Race 3 - #6 Bamboozie, 10-1: Improved sharply in his first turf start, showed speed, and has room to progress in career start three.


Race 6 - #9 Just Tell Anne, 12-1: Returns to a turf route after a poor sprint. Her previous routes at this level put her within striking distance.
