Ellis Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
LITTLE BLAZE (1) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Scored over 1006m at Sam Houston Park at the start of last prep. Rates highly and should take some beating. BEAU SOLEIL (4) turned in a modest performance when seventh last time out over 1609m at Hawthorne, beaten 5.5 lengths. That followed a win at Churchill Downs at the previous outing. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. WHAT'S CRACKIN (8) was in contention on the bend and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1106m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GOSHEN (5) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Can play a prominent role.
