Ellis Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Claiming
COFFEE TALK (7) is a four-start maiden who finished fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. TURNBUCKLE (1) finished 1.4 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1609m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Settles back early but winds up late. Best form puts him right in this. BATTER UP (4) finished a 9 length sixth on dirt at Churchill Downs two back then followed up with a minor placing on dirt at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 1710m five-and-a-half weeks ago. Edgar Morales stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on four occasions. Expected to measure up. RICH VINO (2) failed to threaten at his first outing last time out, finishing eighth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Should appreciate the extra ground this time. Capable of a much better performance.
