Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
SUPER PACHI (1) finished 1.2 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1106m at Ellis Park after being in the firing line on the turn when resuming from a spell. Steps up in distance today. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will play a major role. DRAGON NAVY (5) is yet to break through after three career starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at this track (Dirt) two starts back when resuming before finishing fourth over 1106m at Ellis Park (Dirt) last start. Cannot be left out of calculations. HIGHLIGHT SHOW (10) showed promise on debut last time out when in the money over 1106m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt), beaten 7 lengths. Likely improver so another bold showing is expected. DIVA CALLING (13) is fresh from a spell of four-and-a-half months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Keeneland (Dirt) over 905m. In a different yard now. Something for the Multiples: STARLIT NITE (6)
