Churchill Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance

NESSY (4) Took charge of the race to win by close to 12L last start at Mountaineer Park and solid career start. Up in grade. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . RUIVA (6) Competed in a tight contest last run at Keeneland and good career start. Will be positive in the run early. Irad Ortiz Jr is a suitable booking. Has the ability to take this out. INTO MUSIC (1) Stormed home to win last run at Canterbury Park and was a debutant last start. Will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Challenged by a tougher grade. Has to be included. REZA (7) Bolted in when winning by a margin of 8L last run at Gulfstream Park and was on debut last time. Displays good finishing speed. Racing against tougher rivals. Won't be far away.

Finished hard to win last run at Canterbury Park and having second race start. Has the ideal gate. Rising in grade. Strong claims in this.

Odds of $36.00 and folded up in the straight when 10th last time at Keeneland and racing in stronger company. Dropping back to a shorter trip. Better to look elsewhere.

Assumed control from the start to win by a margin of almost 12L last start at Mountaineer Park and promising career start. Shows good early pace. Facing a stronger class. Good chance of taking this out.

Started at $9.50 and tailed off to finish 4th last time at Woodbine but showing consistent performance in races. Testing ability against stronger contenders. Quietly confident of a big run at decent odds.

Jumped at $3.50 and narrowly beaten last run at Keeneland and putting a tidy record together so far. Should race on the speed. Irad Ortiz Jr is a smart booking. Should go very close.

Was dominant when winning by a margin of 8L last run at Gulfstream Park and having second career run. Will be trying to topple them late. Stands out as good value.

Odds of $23.00 and mediocre attempt when 6th last time at Keeneland and competing in a higher grade. Displays good tactical speed. Not in this.
