Churchill Downs Race 2

Maiden Claiming

Stake: $81,000

ARMY HERO (5) Finished 6th last time at Keeneland. Has the potential to improve sharply. Always seems to find the line well. In top racing shape since resuming from a spell. Strong hope. HALFWAY TEMPTED (2) Faded away to finish 10th last time at Oaklawn Park. Expecting improvement and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has a good draw. Deserves consideration. TOUGH CUSTOMER (6) Displayed good finishing speed when 2nd last run at Oaklawn Park. Luis Saez and Brad H Cox deserve serious consideration as a team. Will be hitting the line strongly. Serious player. DAN D'ORO (7) Made up ground when 4th last run here. Won't be far away during the run. Suggest each way.
