Nadeau: Keeneland Play of the Day Sat 10.12.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 10/12/24 |
| Featured track | Keeneland |
| Race number | 7 |
| Race overview | A seemingly modest but full field of 2yofs in an MSW at 6 furlongs on the main track. |
| Pace | It’s a full field, with several firsters as well, so things should be honest, and potentially contested, on the front end. |
| Trends | The main track played to speed and was FAST, as the fractions were ridiculously quick, yet horses kept going, so make sure to monitor things early in the week and proceed accordingly. |
| Best Play | #6 KEEPSAKE (3-1): Cox firster has a strong pedigree, big works, and lures Prat, which is significant, and, on least on paper, doesn’t meet the saltiest MSW they will run at the meet, which says she’s in a good, good spot. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the late Pk5, and to kick off the late Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Kee POD: 3-1-0-0 ($2.49/$4.75 through 10/6)
