Churchill Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
COMPREHENSIVE (8) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 1710m at Keeneland Turf (Turf) when he was in the firing line all the way. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SIGFRID (4) drifted back early on debut last start then worked home strongly to finish 1.5 lengths away in third at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) over 1673m. Open to improvement and looks a serious contender. MR BOBO (11) is back after a break of 11 weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished fourth over 1609m at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Opened last prep with a minor placing at this track over 1710m. Has ability and is a leading player.

Had two starts to date. At big odds at debut, 4th of 8 at Turfway Park on March 13 over 1207m, 7 len behind Ambitiously carrying 53.5kg at $27.65. Second-up 6th of 9 at Keeneland on April 19 over 1408m, 15 len behind Final Story carrying 54.5kg at $41.23. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.
