Churchill Downs Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight
SMOKE (2) wasn't far away on debut last start over 905m at Keeneland (Dirt), finishing second and beaten 3.5 lengths. Sure to improve and can get off the mark this time. LADY CHANEL (8) is a two-year-old filly on debut. From an elite family that includes a G1 victor, being by Jackie's Warrior from Wind Caper. Comes from a stable which has an impressive strike rate with the first-starters. Sure to be competitive despite a tricky draw. EPIC SPENDER (9) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Steven Asmussen. By Epicenter from Ha' Penny. Bold showing expected. LOOKIN' PRETTY (4) is appearing for the first time. By Practical Joke and hails from the Peter Miller stable. Top-three chance.

Was well in the market at debut, 2nd of 7 at Keeneland on April 8 over 905m, 3.5 len behind Waggley carrying 54kg at $4.21. Can build upon that bright start to her career.
