Ellis Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance
IN TOTAL AWE (8) impressed when successful on debut over 1308m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) five weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and can win again. BALACLAVA (7) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by 0.3 lengths last time out over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Goes up a rung or two but she is worth serious consideration. CRIMSONITE (1) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 3 lengths. Yet to miss the placings in two starts over this course and distance. Hard to beat in this suitable race. QUEEN OF CAPRI (5) showed good early speed over 1609m at Ellis Park Turf (Dirt) last time and went on to salute by 0.8 lengths. Must be respected.

Resumes from a spell. Finished off last campaign seventh of 10 at Churchill Downs May 30 over 1609m, 18 len behind Betty's Pearl with 53.5kg at $20.93. On debut second of 11 at Churchill Downs November 29 over 1408m, a nose behind No Time Left with 54kg at $7.41. This looks too tough.
