Churchill Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
BEE CRAZY (3) is a talented filly who was well held last time out in the tougher race won by Adonius over 1106m at Keeneland Turf, beaten 4.5 lengths into eighth. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the lead. Likely to feature. MEDINAH (8) is a talented filly who was well held last time out in the tougher race won by Brickyard Belle over 1207m at Belmont Park Inner Turf, beaten 6 lengths into seventh. Should be poised just off the lead. Leading contender. ESTARDOTOO (1) is coming off a last-start fifth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1710m at Keeneland Turf. Must be respected. EPERNAY (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Last start ran last in a small field at Keeneland Turf on October 9 over 1710m, 8 len behind Silver Road with 54.5kg at $15.09. Before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 10 at this track on September 26 over 1609m, 0.5 len behind Nymira with 54.5kg at $17.13. Makes plenty of appeal from the inside alley.

Last start ran last of 9 in the G3 Indian Summer Stakes at Keeneland Turf on October 4 over 1106m, 10 len behind Adonius carrying 54kg at $29.97. Before that scored a big 6 len win at Ellis Park Turf on August 23 over 1106m defeating Mega Blue carrying 54.5kg at $2.23. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.

Comes here off a 33-day let-up. At the latest run won by a 0.1 len at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf on September 22 over 1006m defeating Lady Wren carrying 54.5kg at $7.90. The start before that ran second last of 11 at Churchill Downs on September 10 over 1207m, 23 len behind Shinobu with 54kg at $32.26. This looks too tough.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; won by 0.8 len at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf on September 8 over 1006m defeating Youhadme At Merlot with 54.5kg at $3.80. Unlikely to be contesting the finish despite that strong debut.

Last start sat behind the speed prior to fading ran second last of 8 in the G3 Matron Stakes at Belmont Park Inner Turf on October 3 over 1207m, 6 len behind Brickyard Belle carrying 55.5kg at $9.38. Should be right in the finish.
