Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Claiming
BIG SALT LICK (10) is yet to break through in 11 runs but has been thereabouts. Placed two back then was 8 lengths away in fourth over 1811m at this track (Dirt) last time. Wide draw but keeps coming. Terrific chance to return to form. GUARDIAN (6) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 7 lengths when fifth over 1509m at this track (Dirt). Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a strong chance to break through. COCKTAILSNKRINGLE (5) finished 16 lengths away in seventh last time out over 1308m at this track when resuming from a spell as $4.109999999999999 favourite. Tackles a longer journey this time. Fitter and with blinkers added is worth including. ACTIVITY (8) was prominent at the turn and finished second last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten half a length. Meets some better types this time but a big run will not surprise.
