Ellis Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Starter Optional Claiming
GET HER NUMBER (6) produced a reasonable effort when third last start after being in the firing line on the turn over 1308m at Churchill Downs, beaten 2 lengths. That followed a win at Keeneland the start prior. Has the class to return to the winner's list. LORD MAJESTY (7) travelled just behind the leader before taking over and scoring a determined win by 0.3 lengths over 1207m here last time. In fine form and worth following up. GEE NO HOLLANDER (5) is knocking on the door after just missing last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Expected to run well again. SHAN (2) scored last start at Churchill Downs (Dirt) to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Do not underestimate.

Returns from a 43-day let-up. Last start won by 0.8 len at Churchill Downs June 18 over 1308m defeating Catamount carrying 53.5kg at $5.86. The race before that ran second last in a small field at Churchill Downs on June 3 over 1308m, 4.5 len behind Invulnerable with 53.5kg at $24.93. Can't recommend against this lot.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 7 at this track on July 4 over 1207m, 0.3 len behind Lord Majesty carrying 55.5kg at $2.69. The start before that 2nd in a small field at Churchill Downs on June 11 over 1308m, 1.3 len behind Air Of Defiance with 53.5kg at $3.27. Rates highly after a strong run last time.

Recent form sound. Last start held ground to the line 3rd of 7 at this track on July 4 over 1207m, neck behind Lord Majesty carrying 55.5kg at $6.06. The race before that settled back and ran on when 4th of 7 at Churchill Downs on June 18 over 1308m, 1.5 len behind Derby Date with 54.5kg at $2.78. Promising effort last time out. Solid prospect.
