Keen gets his first Gulfstream win

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Trainer Dallas Keen finally got his first Gulfstream Park victory when Katillac Charm drew off to a 2 3/4-length tally under jockey Juan Leyva in Thursday’s second race.

“It feels good; we had a lot of seconds and thirds,” said Keen, who has won more than 800 races in his career, most coming in Texas and around the Southwest. “I think the first horses we ran were too inflated for the racing here. I’ve brought some extra horses here for Midwest Thoroughbreds, and I’m getting them ready now, so we have a lot of high expectations for Florida.”
