Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Special Weight
GIGI SPIRIT (6) Debutant 3yo by Global Campaign for Saffie A Joseph Jr. Irad Ortiz Jr is a bonus. Watch the market moves. QUALITY VIEW (7) Competed in a tight contest last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis and showing consistent performance in races. Luis Saez and Christopher Davis are consistently competitive when paired. Genuine winning chance. SISTER JEAN (2) Nice effort to run into 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start at the track and has a positive gate. On an upward trajectory in recent races. Has the ability to take this out. MIGHTY NORA (11) Ran 4th last run here. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Can get the job done.
