Fair Grounds Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
LADY ORIENT (7) is back after a break of six months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1609m at Churchill Downs. Has found the right race. PERFECT UNION (2) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 10 lengths over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed and she is right in the mix again. DON'T BE SALTY (4) kicked off this prep with a win four weeks ago, scoring over 1609m at this track. Solid top-three hope. MCKINZIE MAGIC (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 10 lengths. Likely improver who looks sure to play a big role.
