KEENELAND 
 
 
POST-SCRATCHES 
 
 
5th: S/ALW, 3yo-F, 8.5f (P5, P3, DD) 
 
Deep starter group of soph fillies. May need nearly half of them to get through first leg of the quintet.. 
 
Most Likely: #9 Excessiveness 3-1 WON ($5.40) 
Best Value: #6 Electro Peg 6-1 6th 
Next Best: #11 Exotic Mischief 4-1 4th 
Exotics Use: #4 The Business 8-1 2nd 
 
 
6th: ALW/N1X, F&M-4+, 8.5f-T (P4, P3, DD) 
 
Discussed this heat with LoPresti Tuesday with his Mingun mare Gunforhome returning as a 5yo. Well matched group where separating those with upside from career wheel-spinners is the key. For instance, has the light come on for Flower Mart? 
 
Most Likely: #6 Prissy 7-2 WON ($7.80) 
Next Best: #3 Flower Mart 5-2 5th 
Best Value: #1 Cry War Eagle 8-1 8th 
Exotics Use: #8 North by Northlite 4-1 2nd 
 
 
7th: MSW, 3yo, 7f (P3, DD) 
 
Ooof.. What to make of these? Key to the late PX's with firsters and second timers making it nearly impossible to take a hold with confidence. When Shug starts them at 6f, he's getting in a start. When he opens them at 7f, they generally run well. Developer added a blowout oover the strip Wednesday and at 8-1 he's worth keying up and down.. 
 
Most Likely: #5 Developer 8-1 WON ($26.00) 
Next Best: #11 Coaches Favorite 6-1 8th 
Best Value: #2 Leadem in Ken 8-1 7th 
Exotics Use: #9 Wind of Bosphorus 3-1 5th

Super Add: #2 Kissable 6-1 4th 
 
 
9th: CLM/N2L, 3+, 9f (Super Hi-5) 
 
Hard to argue with viability of 6-5 Ramsey entry (Ward/Maker), but there are a few here well within range at attractive numbers. Not so cut & dry despite dominance of the record-smashing meet leaders..
