Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
FLASHY AVIATOR (4) finished third, beaten 10 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at Colonial Downs (Dirt) after she was in contention on the turn. Goes up a rung or two but she is good enough to make a big impact. BULLET BABY (2) is building towards her maiden success, the latest effort a solid second over 1609m at Ellis Park (Dirt), beaten 2.75 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Tackling a deeper field this time but she is capable of running another bold race. BETTY WHO (3) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 6 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1207m at Belterra Park (Dirt). Worth including in this suitable contest. PROSECCO GAL (5) returns after three months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a 11th over 1609m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf). Has ability so don't underestimate. Something for the Multiples: DECEIVING DIVA (1)
