Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Special Weight
FLICK (7) Didn't threaten when 5th last start around here. Overlooking the last run. Big chance. THE HUND (6) Faded in the late stages of the race when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at the track. Displays good tactical speed. Will be around the mark at odds. TILT A TWIRL (4) Ran well when 3rd last start at the track. Likely to be well placed early. Strong chance. RUGGED LOVE (3) Did well to run 3rd beaten by 4 1/4L last time at this venue and fitter for debut run. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds.
