Churchill Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Starter Allowance
RATIONAL THEORY (2) got off the mark with an impressive maiden win last time out over 1207m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Big chance to go back-to-back. SPUN CANDY (4) turned in a fine effort to win by 3.5 lengths at today's track and distance last start in a far better run. Looks well placed so expect another big run. OUR SHENANIGAN (6) registered a strong win at Turfway Park two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when in contention on the bend before finishing second over 1408m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. BOURBON SERENGETI (8) improved sharply last time out to score by 5 lengths over 1609m at Aqueduct (Dirt) five-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Returns from a 38-day let-up. At the latest run struggled in the run home; second last of 8 at Oaklawn Park on April 17 over 1106m, 12 len behind Itzel carrying 55.5kg at $3. The run before that 3rd of 7 at Oaklawn Park on March 22 over 1207m, 6 len behind True Passion carrying 56kg at $2.60. Safely held last start but is capable of better.
