Ellis Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance Optional Claiming

BEAR RIVER (2) is racing well on turf of late, hitting the frame two back at Horseshoe Indianapolis then improving to score at this track over 1106m six days ago. Nice class drop this time. Top chance in this field. HERE MI SONG (6) stuck on well last start to finish third over 1308m at Listed level at this track (Dirt) after showing good early speed. Perfectly placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. SECOND I D (1) went forward last start over 1207m in Listed grade at Prairie Meadows (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten 1.5 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. RED STATE (4) won at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) two starts ago but was below his best at a more recent appearance, finishing sixth over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Suitably placed so expecting a better run this time.
