Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
STIRRUP (9) 2yo by Daredevil having first start for trainer Eddie Kenneally. Betting as a guide. NEWHOPE (7) Lindsay Schultz trained 2yo debutant by Plainsman. Watch the market. PEACE MISSION (12) Didn't find the line when 6th last start at Ellis Park and coming back in distance. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Has some strong credentials in this race. SHINOBU (1) Folded up in the straight when 9th last time at Saratoga but gets a favourable draw. Shows good early pace. Has claims.

Jumped at $12.00 and was nothing special when 11th last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis but was on debut last time. Might be ridden for luck. Can't have today.

Was $12.00 and sub-standard effort when 5th last start at Horseshoe Indianapolis but was on debut last time. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.

First up today. Odds of $12.00 and was well beaten when 6th last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis but fitter for debut run. Stable is in form. Prefer others.

Odds of $28.00 and came in 6th last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis but having second career run. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. One for the place and exotics betting.
