Kentucky Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
TEMPTING EVE (16) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1106m at Ellis Park after being in the firing line on the turn. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is right in contention. TEXAS QUEEN (1) is closing in on a win, last time out finishing third over 1106m at Ellis Park (Turf) when just 1.5 lengths from the winner. Drawn well and is one of the main chances. SENORA D'ORO (12) faced the starter for the first time and finished fifth last start at Ellis Park (Turf) over 1106m, beaten 1.75 lengths. Better for that run and can improve sharply. AUTUMN SUNSHINE (4) is appearing for the first time. By Munnings and is out of the B H Cox stable. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
