Churchill Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance
GYPSY ART (6) scored an overdue maiden win last time out, getting home by 0.3 lengths over 1006m at this track (Turf). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a key runner. MILITARY CRUISER (9) lines up on the back of a 2.5 lengths fourth over 1106m at this track. Leading contender. ROSE RULER (7) is racing well, scoring two back at Keeneland Turf (Turf) before finishing 2.25 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1106m at this track (Turf). Should park just off the speed. One to consider. DOUBLE TALKER (8) hasn't been able to break through for over a year, the latest finishing third over 1106m at this track (Turf). Has the pace to settle in the leading division. In the mix.

Second run back. First-up after 14 months 10th of 12 at this track on May 17 over 1106m, 5.5 len behind Schwarzenegger with 56kg at $16.84. Previously second-up won by a 0.3 len at Gulfstream Park Turf March 15 2025 over 1006m defeating Mr Binks carrying 53.5kg at $2.10. Unlikely to threaten.

Second-up. Comes off a 40-day let-up. First-up after eight months ran last of 10 at Churchill Downs on May 2 over 1308m, 21 len behind Gilded Bandit with 53.5kg at $31.37. Previously second-up 6th of 10 at Keeneland Turf on April 24 2025 over 1106m, 12 len behind Tough Critic with 54kg at $30.29. Fitter but must improve sharply.
