Churchill Downs Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
MORUNNING (8) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 13 starts. Did a good job last start to finish third over 1207m at Ellis Park, beaten 8 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. ONE MOR STORY (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1710m at Del Mar, beaten 2.5 lengths into fourth. Going up a level this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. GOOD MONEY (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1609m at Ellis Park (Dirt) after being in the firing line on the turn. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. FORTY LOVE (4) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 14 lengths away in seventh over 1207m at Ellis Park. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
