Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance
SARGENT BILKO (4) changes rider since being well held last time in sixth over 1408m at Listed level at Ellis Park (Dirt) on August 9. Expected to bounce back. TITLE WORTHY (1) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1408m at Ellis Park (Dirt) six weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. NEVER A DOUBT (3) was a winner at Gulfstream Park over this distance two back then tackled a longer trip last time but failed to measure up when fifth at Listed level at Ellis Park (Dirt). Can bounce back. ISSACHAR (6) is having his second run back from a break after he failed to threaten first up over 1106m in Listed grade at Ellis Park Turf (Turf), beaten 13 lengths. Nice class drop this time. Don't underestimate.
