Ellis Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
KING OF ASHES (9) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time out over 2012m at this track (Turf), finishing third and beaten 0.9 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. DOCTRINE (10) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time over 1710m at this track (Turf). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. RAPOPORT (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.5 lengths when fifth in a 2012m contest at this track four weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. PATROL SQUAD SIX (3) knuckled down strongly to get within 1.5 lengths of the winner in third last start over 1710m at this track. Yet to break through at this journey but has placed at all four tries and deserves respect.
