Churchill Downs Race 10 - Race 10 - Mdn Claiming
ROGUISHNESS (3) Fresh after break of 33 weeks. Ran 7th last run at Fair Grounds. Is capable of a resurgence. Will be motoring home late. One of the major players. POSITIVE EQUITY (4) Right in the mix last start at Ellis Park. Coming to a new trainer. Has early speed and positions nicely. Respect. ONEMORETIME (7) Faded away to finish 8th last start at Ellis Park. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Rafael Bejarano and Bob Baffert have a good working relationship. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. OTZELBERGER (5) Zipped home into 2nd last run at Thistledown and getting better in recent performances. Shows very good finishing speed. Could run into the placings.

At $43.00 couldn't stay in touch when 12th last run at Kentucky Downs but will appreciate a good barrier. Will be positive in the run early. This won't be easy.

Jumped at $53.00 and only fair when 9th last start at Ellis Park but has a good draw. Victor Lara takes a large claim. Can't entertain a bet.

Racing fresh after a 33 week spell. At $6.00 finished 7th last run at Fair Grounds. Is capable of a resurgence. Should be swooping on the field late. Has claims.

Odds of $7.50 and weakened under pressure when 8th last start at Ellis Park. Rafael Bejarano and Bob Baffert are usually competitive together. Solid prospects.
