Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Special Weight
CROMWELL (2) Hit the line well when 4th last start here and putting a tidy record together so far. Great to see jockey Jose Ortiz taking the ride. Can win this. BOURBON SOCIETY (1) Came in 5th last run at the track. Capable of a strong comeback and has minimal work to do from the draw. Should jump out and bowl along. Must respect. KAVANAUGH (3) Chased well when 4th last start at Oaklawn Park. Jockey Luis Saez and trainer John Alexander Ortiz are a promising combination. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. CHACHACHING (6) Picked up some ground to run 4th last run at this venue. Will be motoring home late. Showing good ability since coming back from a spell. Each way chance at best in this.
