Ellis Park Race 1

Starter Optional Claiming

Stake: -

RELEASE MCCRAKEN (8) Was eating up the ground late when winning last time at Churchill Downs but up against stronger rivals. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . METATRON'S MUSE (5) Was strong late when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last time at Churchill Downs but facing formidable rivals. Won't be far away. CRITICAL THREAT (6) Romped home to win last run here but challenged by a tougher grade. Should be going forward early. Up to these. COACH CAMPBELL (7) Disappointing display when 6th last time here and competing in a higher grade. Racing for a new trainer. Possesses very good finishing speed. Could be value.
