Ellis Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming
BAYOU MAGIC (1) is having his first run since winning by 1.3 lengths a month ago over 1609m at Churchill Downs. Has transferred to the John F Jr Hill stable over the break. Will prove tough to beat for the new barn. SITKA (2) returned from a spell three-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 11 lengths into eighth over 1207m at Churchill Downs. Won't find this as tough so he is a leading player. LIBERTANGO (5) has not won for a long while. Last raced on June 1 when beaten 2 lengths into fifth at Belterra Park (Turf) over 1006m. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. LEND IT TEWMEY (3) was in contention on the turn and finished second last start over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt), beaten 2.25 lengths. Should take a lot from that hit-out. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. Something for the Multiples: TAP THE CANDY (6)
