Race 1: 22:00 Churchill Downs Race 1 - Maiden Special Weight

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
4th (7) Good Temper	2	Luan Machado	William Walden	Half-sister to Sassy Princess, won at 1m 1f. The betting could provide all the clues.
3rd (4) Wisconsin Gal	2	Joseph Bealmear	Paul McEntee	Placed twice in three starts. Beaten 1 1/4l by Kentucky Smokeshow when second of 12 at 28-1 on her latest outing at Churchill Downs over 5f earlier this month. Could make her presence felt.
1st (8) Gerlin's Empire	2	Tyler Gaffalione	Dallas Stewart	Half-sister to High Press, won six times between 5f and 6f. Placed once in two starts. Finished 9l behind Tiz Purple when fourth of 7 at 16-1 on her latest outing at Saratoga over 6f last month. Warrants serious thought.
5th (2) Ez Tree Ates	2	Jose Ortiz	Norm Casse	Half-sister to Life At Sea, won at 1m. Could have a say on her debut.
2nd (1) Itwillbefun	2	Brian Jr Hernandez	Kenneth McPeek	Half-sister to Malibu Hannah, won at 1m. The market can guide.
(3) My Bossy Lady	2	Axel Concepcion	Andrew McKeever	Half-sister to Paris Kentucky, won twice at 1m. Easier to side with others.
(5) Carolina Smokeshow	2	Florent Geroux	Whitworth Beckman	Dam won at 5f. May need this first experience.
(6) Tectonic	2	Luis Saez	Justin Wojczynski	Dam won three times at 6f. Best watched on her debut.
(9) My Cherry Pie	2	Declan Cannon	D Lukas	Half-sister to C'mon Man, won seven times at 6f. Beaten behind Little Mo at 18-1 when 9th of 16 on her racecourse debut at Ellis Park over 5f (good) last month. Will need to find significant improvement.
(10) Maclean's Lullaby	2	Antioco Murgia	Pavel Matejka	Dam a lightly raced maiden. Unplaced in both starts. Beaten 7l behind Kentucky Smokeshow at 15-2 when seventh of 12 on her latest outing at Churchill Downs over 5f earlier this month. Likely to be on the premises.

WISCONSIN GAL has improved with each of her three starts to date and she looks to have been found a good opportunity to get off the mark. Gerlin's Empire and Maclean's Lullaby are others to consider.

Race 2: 22:29 Churchill Downs Race 2 - Starter Allowance

4th (5) Sacred Saint	3	Luan Machado	Marianne Scherer	A winner at 6f. Finished 12l behind Windy Bay when fourth of 8 at 35-1 on her latest outing at Ellis Park over 7f last month. Easier to side with others.
5th (2) Wits And Wagers	4	Gerardo Corrales	Victoria Oliver	Successful twice at 1m. A winner at 6-1 at Ellis Park over 1m on her latest outing in July, beating Eyes Of Gold by 4l. Warrants plenty of respect.
2nd (7) Cha Cha Chukka	3	Tyler Gaffalione	Brendan Walsh	Won on her latest outing when 6-4fav at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 1m (good) last month, beating Elle's Dancer by 3/4l. Not without a chance.
3rd (6) Low Country Magic	3	Jose Ortiz	Ignacio Correas	A winner at 1m. Finished 8l behind Pharoah's Wine when fifth of 8 at 15-1 on her latest outing at Ellis Park over 1m (good) in July. She is wearing blinkers for the first time. It would be no surprise to see him feature.
1st (1) Classy'n Connected	3	Brian Jr Hernandez	Thomas Drury, Jr	A winner at 9-2 at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 1m on her latest outing last month, beating Paradise Lane by 3l. Needs considering.
(3) East Shore	4	Martin Chuan	Dale Romans	Successful twice at 1m. Won on her latest outing when 9-4fav at Ellis Park over 1m last month, beating Eyes Of Gold. Leading contender.
(4) Sterling Luck	3	Jareth Loveberry	Grant Forster	A winner at 1m. Beaten 9l behind Sanctify at 15-2 when last of 8 on her latest outing at Ellis Park over 1m (good) last month. Others might have her measure.

CLASSY'N CONNECTED accounted for her nearest rival by three lengths over a mile on her latest outing and she might make her return to this track a successful one. Wits And Wagers and East Shore head the dangers.

Race 3: 22:58 Churchill Downs Race 3 - Claiming

4th (8) G T Five Hundred	4	Francisco Arrieta	Juan Cano	He has won four times at 6f. Well beaten at 16-1 behind Thoughtthatcounts when last of 9 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 6f earlier this month. Unlikely to be good enough.
3rd (5) Princip	5	Mitchell Murrill	Gregory Foley	He has won four times at 6f. Beaten 10l behind Global Sensation at 17-2 when last of 7 on his latest outing at Ellis Park over 6f in July. Looks vulnerable once more.
2nd (3) Nabokov	5	Rafael Bejarano	Ed Moger	He has won four times from 5f to 1m. A winner at 2-1 at Belterra Park over 5f on his latest outing last month, beating Halloween by a neck. Should go well.
1st (1) Awesome Aaron	5	Cristian Torres	Troy Green	He has won three times from 7f to 1m. Third of 6 behind Kosher Cowboy beaten 4l at 33-10 on his latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 5f last month. Worth a second look.
5th (6) Zoombie	5	Luis Saez	Eddie Kenneally	He has won four times from 5f to 6f. Beaten 4 1/2l behind Honeyquist at 12-1 when eighth of 10 on his latest outing at Ellis Park over 5f (good) in July. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Ryan Walsh. Not one to write off.
(2) Fit To Fly	4	Jareth Loveberry	Larry Rivelli	Winner of five races from 4f to 6f. A winner at 17-5 at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 6f on his latest outing last month, beating Circle Back Jack by 5l. Will be hard to keep out of the finish.
(4) Global Stage	5	Axel Concepcion	Juan Cano	He has won three times at 6f. Well beaten at 45-1 behind Star Of Wonder when last of 11 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 7f earlier this month. Not dismissed.
(7) I Got No Munny	7	Tyler Gaffalione	Michael Maker	He has won four times from 5f to 6f, but last win was over three years ago. Finished 8l behind Nelson Avenue when fifth of 8 at 6-4fav on his latest outing at Saratoga over 7f last month. A key player.

FIT TO FLY secured his fifth career victory when bolting up on his latest outing and he could prove tough to beat again. I Got No Munny and Zoombie aren't out of it either.

Race 4: 23:27 Churchill Downs Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight

1st (7) Perfect Magic	2	Erik Asmussen	Steven Asmussen	Half-brother to Do Share, won ten times between 6f and 1m including a Grade 3 race. Unplaced in both starts. Beaten 9l behind Floodlites at 25-1 when 9th of 12 on his latest outing at Kentucky Downs over 6f (good) last month. He could put his race experience to good use.
5th (9) Spiced Up	2	Luis Saez	William Mott	Dam won twice at 6f and 7f. His latest workout suggests that he isn't devoid of ability on this first appearance.
3rd (3) Kraken	2	Jose Ortiz	Joseph Orseno	Dam a lightly raced maiden. He is entitled to need this opening bid.
4th (5) Zat's The One	2	Martin Garcia	Philip D Amato	Half-brother to Season To Remember, won twice at 6f. Other newcomers appeal more.
2nd (2) Troubleshooting	2	Tyler Gaffalione	Gregory Foley	Half-brother to Big Trouble, won at 5f. Market support on his debut could prove significant.
(1) Pretty Capable	2	Cristian Torres	Thomas M Amoss	Dam won twice at 6f and 7f. An expensive newcomer who warrants consideration.
(4) Riddler	2	Brian Jr Hernandez	Steven Asmussen	Full brother to Kaling, won at 6f. The market may guide on this opening bid.
(6) Saving Heart	2	Rafael Bejarano	Randy Morse	Half-brother to Burstall, won four times at 7f and 1m. This opening trip could prove on the sharp side.
(8) Golden Goal	2	Joseph Bealmear	Larry Demeritte	Dam won at 1m. It is best to look at other debutants.

Perfect Magic can put his race experience to good use, but there are some interesting newcomers on show who could have his measure. $550,000 purchase PRETTY CAPABLE tops the bill, shortly followed by Troubleshooting.

Race 5: 23:56 Churchill Downs Race 5 - Claiming

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(1) Redhill	4	Andres Calleja	Bonnie Pittman	A winner at 6f. Finished behind Papa Yo when fifth of 9 at 40-1 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 1m earlier this month. Another lesser role awaits.
(2) Rewire	5	Ramon Vazquez	Aaron Shorter	A winner at 1m. Finished 4l behind Dewy's Beast when fourth of 7 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 6f earlier this month. A return to this venue should suit.
(3) Tap The Candy	5	Jose Ortiz	John Hancock	A winner at 1m. Finished 13l behind Town Branch when fifth of 9 at 14-1 on his latest outing at Ellis Park over 7f last month. Others are more appealing.
(4) Lend It Tewmey	6	Chase Miller	Darrin Miller	A winner at 6f, but that win was over two years ago. Finished 15l behind Dewy's Beast when sixth of 7 at 6-1 on his latest outing at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 6f earlier this month. That heavy defeat must be dispelled.
(5) Haskelled	5	Luan Machado	Thomas Van	A winner at 1m. Third of 13 behind Legal Titan beaten at 9-2 on his latest outing at Belterra Park over 1m (good) last month. A switch to dirt shouldn't hamper his bid.
(6) El Mic Tiesun	6	Gabriel Saez	Monica McGoey	A winner at 1m. Finished behind Spurs Up when fourth of 8 at 22-1 on his latest outing at Colonial Downs over 7f last month. A place is possible.
(7) Arthur	3	Erik Asmussen	Steven Asmussen	A winner at 6f. Finished behind Brazen Boy when fifth of 8 at 11-1 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 6f earlier this month. He is wearing blinkers for the first time, which need to help produce a career-best performance.
(8) Cloud Without Rein	5	Carlos Barbosa	Bobby Barnett	Won on his latest outing when 2-5fav at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 6f last month, beating Uptown Tom by 8l. There is likely more to come.
(9) Merlotti	4	Francisco Arrieta	John Wainwright	A winner at 1m. Beaten 11l behind Sharp Stick at 9-1 when eighth of 9 on his latest outing at Hawthorne over 7f (good) earlier this month. One to consider in these calmer waters.

CLOUD WITHOUT REIN was most taking when opening his account at Horseshoe last month and a double could be on the cards. Haskelled is the obvious threat, with Rewire making most appeal of the remainder.

Race 6: 00:25 +1d Churchill Downs Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(1) Dark Thirty	2	Brian Jr Hernandez	Kenneth McPeek	Half-sister to Debatable, won twice at 1m. The percentage call is to look elsewhere for win purposes.
(2) Her Holy Name	2	Ramon Vazquez	Michael Maker	Dam won at 6f. Placed once in two starts. Finished behind Saturday Flirt when sixth of 12 at 13-2 on her latest outing at Keeneland over 5f (good) in April. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with John Hancock. Unexposed sort who commands respect.
(3) Global Queen	2	Axel Concepcion	Michael Tomlinson	Half-sister to K W Captain Hook, won ten times at 5f and 6f. Others appeal more.
(4) Tegwar	2	Francisco Arrieta	John Wainwright	Half-sister to Lead Performer, won at 1m. Placed once in two starts. Finished behind Little Mo when fourth of 16 at 13-1 on her latest outing at Ellis Park over 5f (good) last month. Big each-way contender.
(5) Book'Em	2	Jose Ortiz	W Calhoun	Dam unraced. Beaten by Spankerboom when second of 9 at 21-20fav on her racecourse debut at Churchill Downs over 4f in June. Every chance of going one place better this time around.
(6) Split Success	2	Tyler Gaffalione	Joe Sharp	Dam won at 6f. Looks an interesting newcomer on paper.
(7) Bouji Is A Word	2	Carly Hughes	Jada Schlenk	Half-sister to Solomons Gold, won three times at 6f. Others are preferred.
(8) Flash Wear	2	Cristian Torres	Thomas Vance	Half-sister to Flashiest, won four times at 7f and 1m. Third of 9 behind Swiftwind beaten at 8-1 on her racecourse debut at Churchill Downs over 5f in June. Obvious shortlist material.
(9) Very Cosmopolitan	2	Luis Saez	R Moquett	Half-sister to Violent Turbulence, won five times between 5f and 1m. Third of 10 behind Another Cleeshay beaten 14l at 11-2 on her racecourse debut at Saratoga over 6f last month. Solid claims of at least hitting the frame at this level.
(10) Keyana	2	Walter Rodriguez	Daniel Leitch	Dam won twice at 6f. Finished 13l behind Long Neck Paula when fifth of 11 at 13-2 on her racecourse debut at Churchill Downs over 4f in May. Opposable on the balance of form.
(11) Local Election	2	Jareth Loveberry	Terry Brennan	Half-sister to Phra Phrom, won twice at 6f and 1m. A market check is advised.

FLASH WEAR made a pleasing start when finishing third over 5f here and, stepping up in trip, she gets the vote to score at the second time of asking. Book'em and Her Holy Name can also go well.

Race 7: 00:54 +1d Churchill Downs Race 7 - Allowance

(1) Gorilla Trek	3	Axel Concepcion	Philip Bauer	A winner at 1m. Well beaten at 30-1 behind Dashman when eighth of 10 on his latest outing at Kentucky Downs over 1m 2f (good) earlier this month. Warrants the utmost respect easing in grade.
(2) Harleezy	4	Jane Elliott	Gary Hartlage	Successful twice at 1m. Third of 6 behind Gilded Craken beaten 5l at 19-2 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 1m earlier this month. Others appeal more.
(3) First Player	4	Tyler Gaffalione	Paul McGee	Successful at 1m and 1m 1f. A winner at 11-2 at Ellis Park over 1m 1f on his latest outing last month, beating Brilliant Man by 2l. One of the more likely winners on paper.
(4) Mandatory Meeting	3	Jaime Torres	Jordan Blair	A winner at 13-2 at Colonial Downs over 1m (good) on his latest outing last month, beating Smart Uncle by a neck. This is more demanding.
(5) Winston Wolf	4	Cristian Torres	Thomas Amoss	He has won three times from 1m to 1m 1f. Beaten 1 1/4l by Berrettini when second of 8 at 5-1 on his latest outing at Ellis Park over 1m 1f (good) last month. Every chance of going one place better here.
(6) Native Shaman	3	Corey Lanerie	George Arnold	A winner at 1m. Third of 8 behind Baton Rouge beaten at 28-1 on his latest outing at Ellis Park over 1m 1f last month. Represents an in-form stable and cannot be overlooked lightly.
(7) Daily Grind	3	Luis Saez	D Lukas	A winner at 7-1 at Saratoga over 1m 1f on his latest outing earlier this month, beating Elko County. Warrants the utmost respect in a race of this nature.
(8) San Siro	3	Edgar Morales	Brendan Walsh	A winner at 1m. Beaten 3l behind Higgins Boat at 12-1 when last of 8 on his latest outing at Ellis Park over 1m (good) last month. Capable if inconsistent.

FIRST PLAYER did it well when scoring over this trip last month and he should be tough to stop with a reproduction of that effort. Native Shaman and Winston Wolf are also key players.
