1 KD KD Juvenile Sprint
$500.000 2yo 6 1/2f Turf 122lbs
Over the hillside we go, as the has line-up for the prospects of a nice payday in the KD Juv Sprint, a six and a half furlong stakes around the big bend here in south Kentucky, and I think we can go with a quad of horses to find the winner. I gave the nod to Zeus The Great, as the barn has been hot over this oval, and won the KD Juv over this same strip this past weekend. English Farley is another that deserves some focus as he just missed in both the Bashford Manor at CD and the Skidmore at The Spa… another like either of those and he’s right in the thick of it. Sink looked good running third in the Skidmore, and I think this one could improve with firm footing. You always include the Big Barn and Neutral closed well to be third in the Tyro at MTH after winning the Royal Palm at GP… he’s good.
It’s a nice bunch, I’m horrible at the baby races, so grab a good spot along the rail and let’s see how this one plays out.

2 KD The Untapable
$500.000 2Fyo 6 1/2f Turf 122lbs
We stay in the field and look at the female side of the festivities as we catch a field of ten set to go six and a half furlongs in the Untapable. This race has some importance to me, since I have a horse (no chance) in here, but the RL version will really be a focus for me… for sure!! Let’s give the Big Barn and Let Me Explain top billing for this one. She broke maiden then won the Bolton Landing at SAR to hit this one with a two-race win streak. Let’s go right next door and take Reaper Lightning as the second choice, since she just missed to the top pick in that Bolton Landing race. Can she flip the script and get her picture taken today?
There’s a bunch of good ones in here, and it could go any way…
