Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Starter Allowance
DIVINE TRUTH (3) recorded a strong maiden win over 1207m at Keeneland (Dirt) last time, getting there by 5 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is likely to feature in the finish again. BRAUMS RUN (5) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1207m at Keeneland (Dirt). Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to take this out. DETENTION (1) was comfortably accounted for when fifth last time out over 1207m at Keeneland, beaten 14 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Must raise the bar but he has the talent to test this line-up. ISSACHAR (7) was beaten 10 lengths into fourth at the second run back from a break over 1207m at this track at his latest appearance. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.

Raced two times to date. When well in the market at debut, 6th of 12 at this track on September 16 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Modern with 54kg at $4.47. Last start ran on from midfield and scored a big 5 len win at Keeneland on October 8 over 1207m defeating Touch Money carrying 54kg at $5.12. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.

Resuming after a nine weeks break. Finished off last campaign winning by 0.5 len Horseshoe Indianapolis August 31 over 1006m defeating Aizhurek with 54.5kg at $7.10.

Third-up today. Comes off a 54 day let-up. First-up ran second last of 11 in Listed grade at Ellis Park Turf at Ellis Park Turf on August 1 over 1106m, 13 len behind Fanshell Beach carrying 53.5kg at $67.81. Second run from a spell ran second last in a small field at this track on September 11 over 1207m, 10 len behind Title Worthy carrying 54.5kg at $15.64. Better than that recent plain performance suggests.
