Each day during the 17-day Keeneland Fall Meet, I’ll spotlight the double-digit morning line prices that you’ll want to consider for your exotics plays. These are based on my top-3 choices in each race and will only appear if they’re in my mix and of significant odds.
Race 4:
#3 My Stubborn Lassie (12-1 ML): projects to get an inside-speed trip and that’s been dynamite this week with the turf rail out. Blinkers go on the Peter Eurton trainee who has never run a bad race.
Race 5:
#7 Order Restored (10-1 ML): Yes, that’s a 1-1/2 year layoff that we’re staring down, but trainer Whit Beckman’s success on MSW to MCL class drops is fantastic and that he gets leading jockey Tyler Gaffalione is an interesting statement.
Race 8:
#8 This Is Uscar (10-1 ML) pictured: The Lukas Classic has been the preferred prep path to Fayette Stakes success for the past several years and this veteran fits in a race like this while some others are here because they didn’t get to the Grade 1 Breeders’ Cup level late this year.
Race 9:
#1 Blackout Time (12-1 ML): Dirt stakes performer is bred to the hilt for grass and trainer Kenny McPeek is finishing this Fall Meet strong. With turf rail out, inside is a big aide and if he breaks running, watch out. Has Remember Mamba to fear late like the rest of them.
