Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
SOAP NOTE (2) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at Keeneland, beaten 8 lengths into fifth after being in contention on the corner. Beautifully placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. DOWN TIME (7) is a nicely bred two-year-old colt on debut. By Drain The Clock from Charlies Love who has a high percentage of winners-to-runners. Should be thereabouts despite a tricky gate. GLENADEAN (1) is on debut for the R E Moquett stable. Two-year-old filly by Cairo Prince from Maxine's Tap Room. Can measure up. Betting crucial. MIDNIGHT COMMANDER (4) is a two-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Chris A Hartman. By Street Strategy from Megyns Gold. Worth watching for a betting push.
