Ellis Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
SUNSET BEAUTY (2) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 4 lengths from the winner in third over 1609m at Santa Anita after being prominent at the corner. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. DARK THIRTY (3) is a four-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent outing over 1609m at this track (Turf). Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. REYA SUNSHINE (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. PEOPLE GET READY (9) is yet to break through after six starts but not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Backmarker who keeps coming. Suited here and can sneak into the finish.
