Churchill Downs Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Claiming
PRINCE OF LIGHT (7) sets the standard dropping back to 1609m after a Fair Grounds 3rd over 1710m and a prior 2nd over this trip, leading until late. GENTLEMAN JIM (10) rates the main danger with a recent Keeneland 2nd over 1408m and earlier 3rd at 1308m; stretches to the mile. BOSS' DEED (3) has multiple Turfway placings including thirds at 1609m and can improve from a softer draw. INTUITIVE WISDOM (13) showed ability when 3rd at Delaware over 1609m and was prominent for a long way last start at 1811m before fading, which reads okay back to the mile.
