Churchill Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
BRIGHT SKITTLE (6) First up after a 59 week break. Finished 6th last time at Kentucky Downs. Should improve and promising career start. Displays good tactical speed. Expect to go close. MR. TALLYMON (3) 3yo by Vekoma having first race appearance for Doug L Anderson. Respect the betting. BEMIS (1) Back from a 30 week break. Big effort to finish 3rd beaten by 6L last time at Oaklawn Park and has drawn the rails. Solid career start. Worth strong consideration. QUENTIN B (4) Weakened to finish 6th last start at this track. Should be going forward early. Can't be left out of exotics.

First up after a break of 30 weeks. Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 3rd last time at Oaklawn Park and good career start. Change in trainer. Winning chance at nice odds.

Jumped at $6.00 and didn't threaten when 6th last start here. Should race on the speed. Could feature here.

Fresh today. Jumped at $9.00 and struggled with the pace when 7th last time at Saratoga but having second career run. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Resumes after a spell of 59 weeks. At $3.75 came in 6th last time at Kentucky Downs. Should improve and putting a tidy record together so far. Should go very close.
