Horse Racing picks for Keeneland race track on Wednesday, October 11: Like A Saltshaker for the win

Scott Spieth atop Silverly Enough wins the eighth race of the day at Tampa Bay Downs.

There is plenty of great horse racing across America on Wednesday, including Keeneland race track. We have been in fine form with our picks for a long time now, as we are up +163.45 units with our race selections to our recommended stakes dating back to August 5, 2021. Let’s keep it rolling!

Here are our best bets for today’s action at Keeneland.

1:00 pm Keeneland (Race 1) – Sicilian Grandman 6/5 (2-star play)

The daughter of Army Mule showed good form at a higher level when delivering a two-and-a-half-length victory in a $35,000 claiming contest over a mile at Saratoga in August. The three-year-old failed to shine when eased in the stretch having been switched to the turf for a mile starter contest at Kentucky Downs subsequently. She advertised her well-being with a four furlong breeze at Turfway Park recently and looks capable of returning to the winners’ enclosure for trainer Mike Maker. 

2:04 pm Keeneland (Race 3) – Like A Saltshaker 2/1 (2-star play)

Brittany A Vanden Berg’s gelding has shown good form since joining her winning three of his four starts including by three-and-three-quarter-lengths in a $10,000 starter contest over six furlongs at Churchill Downs last month. The pick had previously suffered his sole defeat for the handler when runner-up over the same trip in a $16,000 starter optional claimer and he looks up to completing a double with regular rider Christopher A Emigh in the saddle. 

4:12 pm Keeneland (Race 7) – Inexorable 3/1 (2-star play)

The four-year-old showed ability in maiden special weight company last year including when third on a muddy track at Churchill Downs on debut. The gelding broke his maiden when awarded a $30,000 maiden claiming contest at Ellis Park at the end of July and duly followed up on his sole start for Robertino Diodoro in a seven furlong $30,000 claimer at Churchill Downs last month. The pick delivered a nine-and-a-quarter-length triumph that day and looks up to following up.
