So betting on a camel in America probably won’t help you. Maybe, betting on a horse will…

Look to Keeneland’s fifth race (April 15, 2015) to pick a winner, #1 Cavu.
This 4 year old gelding, trained by Al Stall, Jr. should show solid improvement in his second race after a year layoff, per my handicapper. In his only other 2015 race he placed 2nd.
Remember, my blog is foremost educational.  What I  have learned is that Cavu was gelded days before his most recent start.  He has only had 5 starts prior and has won 1st, 2nd, and third previously. His dam is Sharp Eyes and his sire Zensational. His sire is the only horse to ever win 3 consecutive Grade I Sprint events.

His trainer is Albert M. Stall Jr. He has won multiple stakes including the Breeders’ Cup Classic in 2010 and last year the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Race in 2014. He is listed as a top 50 earning trainer of 2014.  Stall has had 22 horses run first this year thus far.

The jockey is Joe M. Johnson.  He also is a multiple stakes winner.  He has had 7 horses win 1st place in 2015.

Update: Cavu tired badly, looking like a winner at the 1/8 pole he could not keep up his pace and did not perform well in this race.
