Insights on the American Racing Scene for Oct. 7

8th-BEL, $80K, Alw/Opt. Clm. ($63.5K), 3yo/up, 1m, 4:46 ET
Donegal Racing's KEEN ICE (Curlin), last year's GI Travers S. upsetter, makes his first start for trainer Todd Pletcher, having been previously conditioned by Dale Romans. The bay colt was seventh in Meydan's G1 Al Maktoum Challenge-Round 3 Mar. 5 before checking in eighth behind California Chrome (Lucky Pulpit) in the G1 Dubai World Cup three weeks thereafter.
