Fair Grounds Race 4

Maiden Special Weight

Prize Money: $82,695

BE REAL (10) was well in commission when resuming last start over 1006m at Churchill Downs (Turf) but could only manage sixth, although only 2.25 lengths from the winner. Should park just off the speed. Will play a major role. VALIANT HUMOR (8) turned in a decent effort last start when he made late ground to finish third over 1308m at Churchill Downs. Has the talent to take this out. RESTORE (2) finished fifth over 1006m at Churchill Downs (Turf) at his most recent appearance on May 8. Sure to make his presence felt. URBAN RULER (5) finished fourth last start over 1106m at Hawthorne (Turf) after racing on the pace for much of the way. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. Something for the Multiples: FIRST SAMARITAN (3)
