Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Special Weight
AKINMUSIRE (10) is a two-start maiden who looks close to a win after placing at both runs, the latest when third over 1006m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt). Going well and is among the top chances. PURSE THIEF (4) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing third and beaten 2.5 lengths over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. BRERETON'S BAYTOWN (13) finished midfield on debut last time out, safely held 7 lengths from the winner over 1106m in Listed grade at Saratoga (Dirt). Better for the experience and can turn things around. CONCRETE CRUISER (3) debuted three-and-a-half weeks ago when he finished fifth over 1006m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Should be thereabouts.
