Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Allowance
ARBITER (5) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 6 lengths over 1207m at Listed level at Woodbine All Weather. Looks well placed so expect another big run. MONSTER (1) went forward last start over 1006m at Listed level at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) and held on well for second, beaten half a length. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. TROUBLE CALLING (4) dug deep to win by a nose two runs back at Listed level at Keeneland (Dirt) then finished eighth over 1609m in the G2 Pat Day Mile Stakes at Churchill Downs (Dirt) last time. Will find this easier. Luis Saez who has two wins when partnering stays on. Has claims on his best figures. HAMMOND (3) is facing a turf track for the first time and has switched yards since finishing fourth last start over 1207m on dirt at Churchill Downs.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation third in a small field at Turfway Park in the LR March 21 over 1207m, 8 len behind Outfielder with 53.5kg at $11.14. Previous preparation first-up won by 3 len Turfway Park January 2 over 1308m defeating Section with 54.5kg at $3.19. Doesn't appeal.
