Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Special Weight
BOURBON TOWN (5) will find this a little easier than his second on debut seven-and-a-half weeks ago, beaten 2 lengths at the end of 905m at Keeneland (Dirt). Sure to take a lot from that hitout so he will prove tough to beat. TIME FOR ACTION (1) is a two-year-old colt facing the starter for the first time. Out of Group 2 winner Tequilita. Is a leading contender. FORTUNE KING (2) turned in a moderate debut over 1006m at this track (Dirt) on May 14 when he was safely held in seventh, 16 lengths from the winner. Will take a lot from that experience. Shapes as one to consider. CROSS POWER (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 905m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into seventh. Well placed to bounce back.

First-starter by Not This Time out of Tequilita. Nice profile and any positive market lead must be respected.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, 7th of 9 at this track on May 14 over 1006m, 16 len behind Captain Luke with 54kg at $65.64. Likely to take a lot from that run and is worth following up.

Last start ran last of 7 at this track on May 17 over 905m, 9 len behind Issachar with 54kg at $26.72. The run before that ran last of 9 at Keeneland Turf on April 23 over 1106m, 27 len behind Tolstoy with 54kg at $61.07. No threat last time out but this suits.

Was well-supported at debut, 2nd in a small field at Keeneland on April 3 over 905m, 2 len behind Suspicions with 54kg at $2.66. Likely to kick on following that last outing.
