Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Claiming
FULL DOLLY (5) maps as a leading chance after closing from 12th to 3rd at Churchill Downs over 1408m last start, beaten 5.3L, and earlier was 2nd at Turfway Park over 1207m. COGNIZANT (7) has solid prior placings, including 3rd at Oaklawn Park over 1710m two runs back, and can improve back to the mile. IN FOR A SPIN (3) has three recent thirds at sprint trips but failed to handle 1709m last time when 6th of 7, 21L off them; a return to shorter helps. PLAYING GAMES (6) debuted when 7th of 8 over 1710m and cuts back in trip. PLAYFUL QUALITY (1) debuts from the inside draw.
