Churchill Downs Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Claiming
LADY FAYE (13) brings the most reliable mile profile, with four placings from her past five including a narrow 2nd at Turfway Park over 1609m, beaten 0.1L, and was a solid 4th here over 1710m last start. RACONTEUSE (8) has consistent recent mile/two‑turn efforts, including seconds at Turfway over 1609m and a close 3rd over 2012m before a fair Keeneland run. MARKET STRATEGY (10) stuck on for 4th at Churchill Downs over 1609m last start, beaten 4.2L after improving mid-race, and can figure. ROTISSERIE (12) steps to the mile after consecutive seconds at Churchill and Keeneland and shapes as a key chance if she runs it out.
