Keeneland Race 9
4 - Stopchargingmaria
Simply loves this distance. Has five wins and one second in seven career starts at 1 1/8 miles. Tired to fourth in her last run, but has been freshened for this and working out like a machine here at Keeneland: 4f :47 B and 5f :59 B. Has the tactical speed to be up close in this not quick paced group and should be right there at the wire with her heart that she has shown in her eight career victories.
14 - Sheer Drama
Enters this race hot. Finishing in the exacta seven straight times. Including a stylish win last time out. Taking a Grade I race at Saratoga under regular rider Joe Bravo by 1 1/4 lengths. Like the tactical speed and should also get a good trip going for third win-a-row.
9 - Stellar Wind
Like to include a California face if we can. This 3 year-old is improving and showed a lot of talent taking the Santa Anita Oaks by 5 1/4 lengths back in April. Jockey Victor Espinoza is aboard today and has been up for her last four victories. She is quick and fresh. Should be able to make her presence felt here as she looks to be returning to form.
