Churchill Downs Race 5

Starter Allowance

Stake: -

TAQDEER (1) Took charge of the race to win by almost 8L last start at Thistledown and drawn well. Undefeated last 2 attempts but competing at a higher level of competition. Serious player. DANZIG'S DORA (4) Faded away to finish 4th last run at this venue. Looking for an improved run but matched against tougher rivals. Strong chance. BEAUTIFUL TWICE (2) Caught the eye when 2nd beaten by 1 3/4L last run at Oaklawn Park and will try to take advantage of the barrier. Should race on the speed. Can figure. THATSALRIGHTMAMA (6) Caught the eye when 3rd last start at this venue but challenged by more formidable competitors. Showing great form since returning from a spell but will be down in distance. One of the main dangers.

Comments

Was much too speedy in front when winning by a margin of nearly 8L last start at Thistledown and will appreciate a good barrier. Facing stiffer opposition. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Showed a good turn of foot when 2nd beaten by 1 3/4L last run at Oaklawn Park and drawn nicely. Should come to hand quickly. Up in class. Some respect.
