Coming off of a high from today’s winning tip I am eager to share my handicapper’s next choice with all of you.
Tomorrow (4/17/15) for Keeneland’s seventh race, go with #10 Harvey. The tip states he broke his maiden impressively after being bumped hard at the break. Trainer Bret Calhoun had a nice winner Thursday and seems to have brought several nice horses to Keeneland this meet.
I am glad he put it that way. It gives us a chance to learn a bit more. A horse is a maiden until it wins a race. This could be the first race it starts in, it may take years or worse, it may never happen. Harvey is a three year old colt that ran 1st at Fair Grounds in Louisiana on 3/21/15. Thus, Harvey is no longer a maiden. Watch him win here:
Harvey was sired by the great Curlin, elected to the National Muesum of Racing’s Hall of Fame and winner of the Preakness Stakes, Breeders’ Cup Classic, and the Dubai World Cup.
Enjoy tomorrow’s racing!
Update: Harvey ran second. A ticket to place earned $5.40. He was shy in the paddock prior to racing. Here is a picture I took moments before he entered the track…
