Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
FUZZY STARE (3) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing when in contention on the corner, finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1106m at Keeneland Turf. This doesn't look as hard so he is a major player. MOUQEER (4) made progress last time out, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1207m at this track after being in contention on the corner. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. D BIGALOW (5) is a nine-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 9 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. JACK CHARLES (7) missed the frame on debut then improved last time when 4 lengths away in third over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Should settle in the leading division. Gets his chance to break through.
