Churchill Downs Race 1

Maiden Special Weight

Prize Money: $143,079

SOLE LUTE (6) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when a neck away in third over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LEBOMBO (5) could only manage fifth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1710m at this track, beaten 0.3 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Nicely placed to take this out. START MO UP (1) went forward last time but couldn't quicken in the run home and finished fourth over 1811m at this track (Dirt). Finds the right race and is worth consideration. ABBI FEDE (4) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 1710m at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.1 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Nicely placed to play a role in the finish.
