Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance
HONEY DUTCH (5) Grabbed towards the finish when 3rd beaten by 4 3/4L last run at Penn National but up against stronger competition. Has early speed and positions nicely. Has the ability to take this out. DE' MEDICI (2) Tailed off to finish 8th last start at this track. Is capable of a resurgence and can find a nice position from the draw. First race for a new trainer. Suitably placed in this race. WHATCHADOIN (6) Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Nice run when 2nd last time at Dundalk but facing formidable rivals. Irad Ortiz Jr is a crucial engagement. Up to these. MEMORY (4) Gave away some ground when 7th last run at this venue. Has the ability to turn things around and challenged by less formidable competitors. Shows good early pace. Not out of this.

Was $5.00 and faded away to finish 8th last start at the track. Is capable of a resurgence and will try to take advantage of the barrier. Gets a chance against these.

Jumped at $6.00 and didn't attack the line when 7th last run here. Has the ability to turn things around and up against a less competitive field. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Back from a spell. Finished 2nd last time at Dundalk and goes down in weight. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr rates highly aboard but competing in a higher grade. Good chance and definitely has claims.
