Churchill Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Wise Dan Stakes - Grade 2

Grade 2 winner OTTOMAN FLEET (2) built on a nice second two starts back in the G2 Fort Marcy Stakes at Aqueduct (Turf) with a win as favourite over 1710m in the G3 Arlington Handicap at this track (Turf) four weeks ago, getting home by one length. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to score again. Grade 2 placegetter WIN FOR THE MONEY (5) was an impressive first-up winner last time out in an easier race over 1710m in Listed grade at Gulfstream Park (Turf), getting home by 6 lengths. Record at this trip is excellent and is among the leading chances. Grade 3 placegetter CHASING THE CROWN (3) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1710m in the G3 Arlington Handicap at this track (Turf). Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. Grade 3 placegetter JOHNY'S FIREBALL (4) built on a nice third two starts back at this track (Turf) with success over 1710m at this track (Turf) three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths. Likely to be in the finish again.

Grade 1 placegetter. Comes off a 42 day let-up. At the latest run came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track in the G3 Louisville Stakes on May 18 over 2414m, 1.3 len behind Sugoi carrying 53.5kg at $41.32. The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at Oaklawn Park in LR on May 5 over 1710m, 4.5 len behind Frosted Departure carrying 54kg at $41.90. Not far from the winner last time but this is a tough assignment.
