Default Up In Lights

Keeneland

Friday 10/23

Race #6

MSW 1 1/8 All Weather

#9 Up In Lights

This race is worth watching the replay. Many horses trying the stretchout for the first time. #9 (Up In Lights) gets hung 6 wide THROUGHOUT the first turn, races minimally 5 wide down the backstretch, moves strongly on the turn to maybe even nudge slightly to the front, passing the eventual winner, who impedes her on the way by. Up In Lights was running out of gas anyway, but this didn't help. Finished 5th on a track that seemed to have a slight speed/rail bias through the early part of the card, a bias she was up against the whole way. This horse went off at 62-1 yesterday. Next time out will still be a price and is worth looking at.

I would have preferred yesterday be the day as I had her in exactas, tris , dd, etc. but will certainly use again.

Watch the race yourself and let me know what you think.

Good Luck!
