Churchill Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Starter Allowance
OTTO THE CONQUEROR (3) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1207m at Oaklawn Park after being prominent at the corner. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. GET HER NUMBER (10) is in sparkling form, scoring at his last four starts, the latest win coming over 1408m at Keeneland (Dirt). Pacey type who will be tough to rein in again. PINFIRE (2) lines up for the first time since November 15. Looking to emulate his win at Keeneland when returning from a spell last prep. Boasts a first-up record of two wins and two placings from six starts. Makes plenty of appeal. STAR'S IMAGE (4) resumed over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by 0.3 lengths. Has a solid second-up record and must be included.
