Ellis Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
MECHAYA (2) drifted well back when resuming last start before winding up strongly to finish second, beaten half a length, over 1106m at this track (Turf). Will be a major player again. LEINANI (4) was well in commission last start over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) when second, beaten 10 lengths. Worth another chance. WINNING STREEP (5) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 11 starts. Did a good job last start to finish second over 1609m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run. CALL ON ME (7) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing sixth last start over 1710m in the G2 Wonder Again Stakes at Saratoga Inner Turf (Turf) eight weeks ago. Should park just off the speed. Sure to be thereabouts.

Comes off a 37 day let-up. At the latest run came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Churchill Downs Turf June 24 over 1609m defeating She's On A Roll carrying 56.5kg at $16.54. The race before that ran second last of 9 at Churchill Downs on May 29 over 1811m, 20 len behind Tap To Open carrying 56.5kg at $32.34. Nice draw and worth thought.
