Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
KAYKAY (5) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Ellis Park (Dirt) over 1308m. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expected to be in the finish. LOVE DIVINE (2) was prominent from the outset and fought on for third last start over 1207m at Ellis Park (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. R KENDL (3) turned in a better run last time to finish second over 1207m at Ellis Park after being prominent at the bend. Going up a level this time but she cannot be underestimated. DRAW (1) is a three-year-old filly facing the starter for the first time. From a successful breeding line, being by Gun Runner from Remarkable. Has the aid of a nice alley and should play a big role.

Comes off a 42 day let-up. Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at Ellis Park on August 1 over 1609m, 7 len behind Passionfruit carrying 53.5kg at $6.41. The run before that 4th of 9 at this track on June 14 over 1408m, 12 len behind In For A Spin with 53.5kg at $3.33. Happy to risk.
