Ellis Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
BARDSTOWN ROAD (7) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1106m at Churchill Downs. Likely improver with strong prospects. PLAY IT AGAIN (11) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when 8 lengths from the winner in fifth at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf) over 1006m. Watch for a much better performance this time. LOST IN THE FIGHT (1) stepped out on his debut over 1106m at Woodbine All Weather three weeks ago and finished seventh, beaten 12 lengths. Improver who can feature in the finish. SKY WARRIOR (6) ended up 10 lengths behind the winner in seventh on debut last start over 1106m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Plenty of scope for improvement. Not to be discounted.
