Churchill Downs Race 12 - Tepin S. Stakes
GROUND SUPPORT (8) is a talented filly who has been in the money at all three starts. Is at the races for the first time since she finished third over 1609m at Del Mar Turf on October 31. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will prove tough to beat. EAST JABIP (3) lines up on the back of a 2 length fifth over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf. Best figures read very well. TAM TAM (9) stuck on well last start to finish third over 1811m in the G3 Regret Stakes at this track (Turf) after showing good early speed. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HOW ABOUT NOW (7) is a last-start winner six-and-a-half weeks ago, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf. Capable of playing a big role.

Second run back. Comes off a 51-day let-up. First-up after eight months won by a nose at this track May 7 over 1710m defeating Raiding Party carrying 53.5kg at $9.19. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by 0.8 len at Keeneland Turf October 3 over 1710m defeating Last Curtain Call with 54kg at $2.49. This is tougher so prefer others.
