Ellis Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
QUICK TO CHARM (4) is yet to break through in 11 runs but has been thereabouts. Last start was 6 lengths away in fifth over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Goes well at this distance, filling a placing at all five runs and is sure to run well. SHOT AT PERFECTION (6) is a eight-start maiden who looks close to breaking the duck after finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs, most recently when 7 lengths away in third over 1207m at Churchill Downs. Nicely placed and gets her chance. GORRONO RANCH (1) returned from a spell five weeks ago when she was beaten 6 lengths into fifth over 1106m at Churchill Downs. Strips fitter and can make amends. MANCUSO (3) could only manage to finish sixth, beaten 17 lengths, at her latest appearance over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Likely to be thereabouts.
