R7 - MSW 40k (Turf 2yo 7.5F)

#10 Two Step Temper (5-1) - Working well for strong debut barn. WON $9.40
#5 Prima Storm (5-2) - Draws well again for 2nd start and the stretchout is well within his range. 2ND
#1 Touchdown (12-1) - Had an interesting run in debut while still continuing to close. Saves ground and fires late.
#8 More Front (3-1) - Barn has a strong 1-2 punch here. No surprise if he's a runner at 1st asking. 4TH

R8 - Millions Classic Preview 100k

#2 Sr. Quisqueyano (30-1) - Crazy ML price on a runner that has more than enough good races to take this event. Expect him to be forwardly placed throughout.
#5 Wildcat Red (8-5) - Definitely has some back class, but must avoid dueling with the other speedsters. 2ND
#4 East Hall (3-1) - Looks to get a favorable stalking trip and is in career form. WON $6.80
#3 Schivarelli (2-1) - Ligthly raced talented runner must deal with others that want the front and be successful at two turns at low odds. 3RD

R9 - Juvenile Turf (Turf 2yo 8F)

#1 Firespike (5-1) -BEST BET No problem excusing the G1 try on dirt because he took lots of money in his grass races and came through at Saratoga facing 9 others. WON $5.20
#2 Black Martino (15-1) - Improved on the Turf and draws much better today. I wonder if the quick turnaround was a spontaneous decision..
#6 I'm Venezuelan (6-1) - Has been freshened up and I don't see any reason he'll have a problem stretching out on the lawn. 2ND
#8 Hubba Shake (5-2) - Will have to maneuver through some traffic but there seems to be enough speed lined up.

R10 - Juvenile Sprint 100k (2yo f 6.5F)

#2 Sum Roar (12-1) - Giant Killer's filly might be the quickest out of the gate and she displayed some guts in debut.
#6 Holywell (3-1) - Has shown some versatility in young career. 4TH
#9 Moment of Delight (5-1) - Adds the hood and looks to make amends for disappointing at odds on. 2ND
#12 Leap Year Luck (10-1) - Look for her to be flying late. WON $17.20

PK4 - 1 3 5 8 10 / 2 3 4 5 / 1 / 2 6 9 12 = $40 for $.50 PAID $430.65 FOR $.50


Churchill Downs POST SCRATCHES - FAST / FIRM


R7 - MSW 41k (2yo 6.5F)

#4 Toasting Master (4-1) - All systems go after productive debut for strong barn. WON $8.00
#3 Mizumi (4-1) - Legitimate excuses at 1st asking and check out that latest local work last Saturday.
#6 Bosphorus Storm (15-1) - Long stings of works is a positive sign and he should show some speed.
#8 Authentic Drifter (6-1) - Barn has them ready right from the jump.

R8 - OC 62k/N2X

#6 Sassy Kiss (4-1) - Draws well and Bridgmo will have options.
#5 More Than Beauty (12-1) - Borel will probably want the lead and you know the rest (BO-RAIL).
#1 Brown Eyed Mary (8-1) - Serious off the pace threat if they go too quick. 4TH
#8 Devious d'Oro (7-2) - Consistent sort should not be ignored for all slots. 2ND

R9 - G3 River City Handicap (Turf 9F)

#4 Villandry (8-1) - Looks primed for a good run off the slight cut back and projected pace scenario. WON $10.60
#6 Silver Max (7-5) - Obviously the most talented runner of the bunch, but is he at his best going 9F and do you really want to eat near even money?
#5 Guys Reward (5-1) - Freshened up while coming back to his favorite course. 4TH
#11 Under Control (Brz) (8-1) - Travels well and must just find a trip to be a contender late. 3RD

R10 - Md 50k (2yo 8F)

#4 Bottom Line (9-2) - Cat Man knows when to drop them. WON $5.80
#5 Blame Angel (8-1) - Better break and he should be right there.
#12 Karlyrae'swarrior (6-1) - Playable on the drop. Barn does well with these types. 2ND
#9 Saturdaynitelites (4-1) - Might take them a long way on the front end.

Thanks, EPB - Looking for a price in the 3rd leg at HAW and then finishing it off.
