Fair Grounds Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance
TRE ITALIANI (3) is close to breaking through after finishing third last start over 1609m at Turfway Park (Synthetic) when he was handy all the way. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. CONTRIBUTION (2) debuted with a win two runs ago. Couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1609m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. CRISIS MANAGER (5) was comfortably accounted for when ninth last time out over 1710m at Oaklawn Park, beaten 8 lengths. That followed a win at Churchill Downs at the previous outing. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is a leading player. ORIGINAL SIN (1) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Strong chance again.

Had two starts to date. When well in the market at debut, favourite; won by 2.75 len at Horseshoe Indianapolis October 29 over 1710m defeating Start To Win carrying 55.5kg at $3.40. Second-up 3rd of 12 at this track on December 27 over 1609m, 1.75 len behind Lebowski with 53kg at $3. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.

Resuming. Not seen since he finished last in a small field at Colonial Downs August 30 over 1609m, 23 len behind Neon Nights carrying 53.5kg at $8.10. On debut third of 8 at Oaklawn Park December 29 2024 over 1207m, 4 len behind Innovator with 54.5kg at $19.60. Hard to enthuse.

Second run back. Comes off a 46-day let-up. First-up after four months held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at this track on December 7 over 1710m, 2.75 len behind Curahee with 54kg at $7.90. Previously second-up won by a 0.3 len at Horseshoe Indianapolis May 20 over 1609m defeating Chicory Blaze with 53.5kg at $4.90. One of the top chances.
