BombsAway in the Keeneland Nightcap
{{monthName}} {{day}}, {{year}} {{hour12}}:{{minuteTwoDigit}}{{dayPeriod}}
After a brief hiatus due to some turf washouts plays and a Mickey Mouse trip, we are back with a 15-1 ML pick #6 Lighthouse Sound in Keeneland's 10th race today. This is a contentious field of 12 but I feel the 6 should sit an ideal stalking trip and put in a nice late run.
Lighthouse Sound just missed in his last at Momouth Park. He stalked some modest fractions and closed in a sub 24 last quarter but the winner prevailed by a neck. With some better fractions to run at today courtesy of the 2, 8, and 10, his late run should put him in the mix at the wire. We will keep the play fairly simple for this one. $50 win #6 and hedge a place finish by wheeling a $10 exacta with the logical contenders over the #6. $10 exacta wheel 345789/6. Finally let's play a $4 exacta wheel 1 10 11 12/6 with a few outsiders that could pop at a big number. Total plays $126
