Play of the Day
Race Date October 16, 2021
Track Keeneland
Race 5
Overview A very strong 50k claimer, though several enter with some sketchy form, which means it could be ripe for the taking.
Pace It should be honest, as both #4 and #8 should ensure the splits are solid, and potentially contested too.
Trends The main track has played very fair during the first three days, as more than a few have come from far behind, to go with a typical amount of gate-to-wire winners.
Best Bet HANALEI’S HOUDINI
Number 7
Morning Line (10-1)
Best Bet Overview #7 HANALEI’S HOUDINI (10-1): Price player might get forgotten here as he enters off a middling 4th on the turf, but the dirt run two-back strong, Ten Strike does a great job with its claims, and Lovell is having a banner year as well, and that 0-for-13 off-the-claim wasn’t compromised with a sharp owner like this.
Picks & Plays WPS bet, EXBX with #6 and #1, and a must-use to end the early Pk5/Pk4 as well.
