Churchill Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
TEMPTING EVE (13) Worked hard to finish 3rd last start at Oaklawn Park and good career start. Won't be far away during the run. Going up in distance. Well placed and has solid claims. SOMETHING STRONGER (16) First up after a break. Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd last run at Fair Grounds. Can measure up to this company. WEDDING MOOD (10) Made some ground late when 2nd beaten by 1 1/2L last run at Keeneland and promising career start. Demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Among better hopes. OLYMPIC DAME (1) Medaglia D'oro 3yo on debut for trainer Brendan P Walsh and gets a favourable gate. Market as guide.
