Ellis Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

JINXZI (8) showed good pace over 1609m at this track (Dirt) last time and defied all challengers to score by 6 lengths. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. FAST SOLUTION (3) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 7 lengths when eighth over 1710m at Ellis Park Turf a month ago. Finds an easier assignment and can take this out. COMES A TIME (7) was a winner on dirt over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis two back but missed the frame on turf over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf last time. Sure to be thereabouts and can find best form again here. RAISING KANE (6) ran fifth at his latest appearance over 1207m at Churchill Downs, finishing 6 lengths from the winner. Capable of playing a big role. Something for the Multiples: SALTWATER COWBOY (2)

Returns from a 48-day let-up. Last start ran last of 7 at Churchill Downs on June 21 over 1308m, 26 len behind Shan carrying 53.5kg at $11.19. The race before that 2nd of 8 at Oaklawn Park on April 26 over 1609m, nose behind Black Powder carrying 56kg at $8.60. Form doesn't read well but he is a genuine contender.
