Ellis Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
REBEL INSTINCT (8) resumed last time out and finished second over 1609m at Churchill Downs, beaten 3 lengths. Looms large. CORONA DE ORO (6) finished fifth last time out over 1710m at Churchill Downs, beaten 12 lengths. Ticks all the right boxes. SUPER HAPPY (10) was safely held when eighth last time out over 1308m at Churchill Downs, beaten 9 lengths. That followed a win at Oaklawn Park at the previous outing. Finds a more suitable contest and can rediscover winning form. QUARRY (11) last appeared a week-and-a-half ago over 1609m at Churchill Downs Turf when he finished sixth. This is his first run for the Mark Simms Jr stable. Can make his presence felt.

Comes off a 29 day let-up. Last start ran second last of 9 at Churchill Downs on June 3 over 1308m, 9 len behind Tap Me A Song carrying 54.5kg at $29.78.
