Lentenor Finishes Seventh
Lentenor finished seventh in his race at Keeneland on Sunday. To me it looked like he got boxed in at the rail, waited a bit too long to see if a hole would open up and then couldn't go around all that traffic. He did come on strong at the end however, and finished strong.
Not a bad outing in a tough field.
Contrast Lenny's race with that of the Matz trained Union Rags who ran away with the Champagne Stakes at Belmont. What a finish--heading to Breeder's Cup Juvenile or holding out for the Triple Crown Run next year? That is a big question! Either way, one heck of a horse.
