Churchill Downs Race 10 - Race 10 - Mdn Special Weight
FROZENKNIFE (10) First time at the races 2yo by Cyberknife for trainer Brad H Cox. Betting as a guide. MR. POPOVER (7) Tapit 2yo on debut for Kelsey Danner. Watch the market moves. FERROUS (9) Just shy of the win last run at Keeneland and putting a tidy record together. In good condition since resuming from a break. No shock to see a win. HICKORY (3) Fresh today after a break. Edged past some when finishing 5th last run at Ellis Park. Should be swooping on the field late. Up to these.

First up today. Started $14.00 and chased well when 4th last time at Ellis Park and having second career run. Facing an increased distance. Drawn beautifully. Most likely not today.

Jumped at $11.00 and tailed off to finish 6th last run here but will try to take advantage of the draw. Will be positive in the run early. Watch for a sign in the market.

Odds of $8.50 and overtook some late when 4th last run at Keeneland. Not at all out of this race.

Missed by a narrow margin last run at Keeneland and showing consistent performance in races. Producing consistent results this campaign. Rates as one of the key chances.
