![]() Churchill Downs - Rain and wind expected, so changes will be made accordingly. POST SCRATCHES
R7 - Alw 44.1k N1X #5 Du Pars - DWL runner has been on the bench since April and comes back to a sprint. Shows a nice string of works. #6 Orangspangledgator - Another coming in off a layoff and making 1st start on turf. Robby knows him. #1 Ya Think - Connections could not be any hotter and he's won 2 of 4 at this distance. #8 Saucy's Got It - Sharp works for return. R8 - OC80k / N$Y #6 Game Face - Multiple graded stakes winner hasn't been seen since the G1 Acorn at BEL in June. Her 11/9 work indicates she's ready to fire right off the bench and her back class doesn't hurt. Showed a ton of heart winning the G3 La Troien on Derby weekend. #4 Appeal With Zeal - ILL bred is looking to make it 3 in a row for solid Chicago connections Yanez/Karlsson. She'll be finishing strong at long odds. R9 - G3 Cardinal Handicap #1 Sousapone - Owns a victory on this course, but this is a higher level. #2 Meribel - Coming in off her 1st win of the year and it came at the same 9 furlongs distance. #3 Long Approach - Forever Together connections always dangerous, but this filly must step up her game to contend in only her 3 start of the year. #4 Queendom - Didn't show much 10 days ago versus lesser, but the extra furlong will help. #5 Callwood Dancer (Ire) - Top money earner has been keeping some fancy company North of the Border, which include Sealy Hill and Forever Together (F&M BC Turf Champion). Her race two back in the G2 Canadian was run in a quagmire and she finished 2nd in front of FT. The soft going will only help her chances. #6 Ciao - Seems like she prefers a firm turf course and that is not going to be the case for this event. #7 Ballymore Lady - She's had a fine year and should not be overlooked at a juicy price. #8 Lady Digby - Has been freshened up and Graham knows how to get them ready right away. #9 Kiss With a Twist - Owns a nice record on this course and could boast the exotics. #10 Indescriable - Last started on the turf 11 months ago. #5 Callwood Dancer #7 Ballymore Lady #8 Lady Digby #9 Kiss With a Twist #2 Meribel Ex & Tri Box - 5 / 2 3 7 8 R10 - MSW 42k #11 Manito - The start cost him any chance in debut and check out the gate workout on 11/7. #4 Inflight - Eligible to improve off wide draw at KEE. #7 Country Day - Margolis 1ster has been training well in the mornings. #1 Soul Warrior - Asmussen runner has been given some time before his debut. PK4 - All (4) / 4 6 / 5 8 / 4 7 11 = $48 Fair Grounds POST SCRATCHES R7 - La Breds Alw 46k N1X #6 Sure Fire Runner - Broke maiden versus open company at LaD and finished 3rd in restricted stakes for Mouton. Like the fact that he has a couple of FG works under his belt. #2 E M Squared - Won debut on the downhill turf course at SA in only start. #4 Gaston - Has only missed the board once in 5 career starts and fits well here. R8 - Alw 44k N1X #1 Victory Romance - Canadian invader towards this field in money earned and PVal (won 2 on opening day) takes the mount. #3 Violetinha (Arg) - Makes 1st start in North America after 12 starts in her homeland. Has been busy in the mornings for Stidham since the end of September. R9 - Mr. Sulu (La Breds) #1 Desert Wheat - Consistent sort comes off a decent effort at KEE. If there's a LA Bred race on the turf, he'll show up. This is not the toughest field he has faced and he's 3 for 8 on this course. Mott/PVal combined to take the co-featured yesterday. R10 - Md 15k #1 Sensei - Calder shipper drops to lowest level. #3 Kriss Me Once - Has been facing better at HAW and should relish the long stretch. #4 Straight Shooter - Speedster has burned some cash going a bit longer. PK4 - 2 4 6 / 1 3 / 1 / 1 3 4 = $18 Good Racing Luck
