Ellis Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming
BOURBON AND SPICE (1) went forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1207m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Taking on a better line-up this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. BELLE OFTHE DANCE (2) ran below expectations last time at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 11 lengths starting at $3.50. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. POPPY WOPPY (5) has switched yards since scoring by 3 lengths at Churchill Downs over 1106m on June 3. Worth plenty of thought. ASHES AND DIAMONDS (3) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 17 lengths away in seventh over 1609m at Churchill Downs. Well placed to turn things around. Something for the Multiples: MCSNIPER (6) STEPHENS DREAM (4)
