Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
YELLOW SUN DRESS (7) turned things around last start and got the job done by 2.25 lengths as public elect over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf (Turf). Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is good enough to cope. BEST CUPCAKE (8) was in the money two starts back at Horseshoe Indianapolis but couldn't back it up last time when ninth, beaten 6 lengths, at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf (Turf) over 1609m after being prominent at the corner. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the key runners. SANCTIFY (2) settled well back last start and never threatened when 6 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1609m at this track (Turf). This doesn't look as hard so she will be hard to beat. DOZEN DIAMONDS (4) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths over 1609m at this track (Turf). Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. In the mix.

Comes off a 42 day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 8 at this track on April 25 over 1609m, 5.5 len behind Classy'n Connected with 53.5kg at $19.74. The start before that second last of 7 at Turfway Park on March 7 over 1207m, 7 len behind Frango Electrico with 54.5kg at $10.43. Might just find this a bit too tough.

Most recently scored a big 6 len win at Belterra Park May 14 over 1207m defeating Jen D'oro carrying 53.5kg at $1.60. The start before that 2nd of 7 at Keeneland on April 15 over 1308m, 2 len behind Black Ginger carrying 54kg at $6.37. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up 3rd in a small field at Turfway Park on March 6 over 1710m, 18 len behind Strong Destiny with 56.5kg at $15.62. Second-up 4th of 11 at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf on May 2 over 1609m, 3 len behind Yellow Sun Dress carrying 55.5kg at $16.80. Racing okay but look elsewhere.
