Churchill Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
INGLEBOROUGH (3) was never in contention when 14 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1710m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fifth at this track the run before. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HEY DEY (6) finished 3.5 lengths from the winner in third when resuming and tackling a dirt track for the first time last start over today's course and distance. Will strip much fitter and is expected to run well. LIBERTY VALANCE (7) settled well back last start and never threatened when 7 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1811m at this track (Dirt). Has the talent to produce a better result. MONEY MAN (4) is a 16-start maiden who is knocking on the door, the last run a commendable second at Keeneland (Dirt) over 1710m after being in the firing line on the turn. Taking on a better line-up this time but he can win if at his best.
