Churchill Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
NATIONAL ECLIPSE (6) resumes in a similar race to his last run 12 weeks ago when he scored by 1.3 lengths. Now under the care of new trainer Steven Asmussen. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. COMPANY YOU KEEP (2) showed good pace and went on to score by half a length when resuming last time out over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Drawn to stalk the leaders. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. VINO COURAGIO (3) was successful last start over 1609m at Ellis Park (Dirt), getting home by 3 lengths to make it three wins in a row. Meeting a deeper field this time but he can win again. RIGHT ON RIGHT ON (4) turned in a nice run when fresh from a spell two starts back at Horseshoe Indianapolis then missed the placings last time when 6 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1710m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Fitter and worth another chance. Something for the Multiples: FAST SOLUTION (11)

Returns from a 33-day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 8 at Ellis Park on August 8 over 1609m, 15 len behind Saltwater Cowboy with 55kg at $6.29. The start before that ran second last in a small field at this track on June 21 over 1207m, 6 len behind Gardiner with 53.5kg at $12.04. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.
