Churchill Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Claiming
MODERN SOUND (4) worked to the line steadily over 1609m at Ellis Park Turf (Turf) last time out and finished fourth. Super honest record at the journey having placed at all four starts including a win and expected to improve sharply. DIAGRAM (12) recorded an all-the-way win last time out by 0.8 lengths over today's journey at Ellis Park (Dirt). Axel Concepcion has been the pilot at her last two wins. Bold showing expected. SUPER COSTLY (9) ran a bold race over this journey last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish 1.3 lengths away in second at Belterra Park (Dirt). Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is right in contention. DANCEWHENYOUCAN (3) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at Ellis Park, beaten 7 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Belterra Park on August 21 over 1207m, 1.3 len behind Mescat carrying 56.5kg at $2.40. The run before that won by 2.25 len at Belterra Park on August 6 over 1207m in heavy going defeating Papas Lady carrying 56kg at $9.30. Should be right in the finish.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 len at Horseshoe Indianapolis on September 3 over 1106m defeating Lalily carrying 53.5kg at $3.10. Before that 7th of 9 at Horseshoe Indianapolis on August 13 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Don't Cross Alexis carrying 53.5kg at $15.10. Has speed but unlikely to be there at the finish.
