Churchill Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
ORDER RESTORED (6) Faded at the finish when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run at Keeneland. Has shown early pace in races to date. Is in good order and can run well. WILL'S ALI (2) War Of Will 3yo having first race start for J Tyler Servis and has a positive draw. Betting as a guide. LEEDU (3) Back from a break of 46 weeks. Did well to place 3rd last start at Fair Grounds and putting a tidy record together. Will be trying to topple them late. Must be considered. HATHAWAY (1) Clearly outclassed when 6th last time at Keeneland but having second race start. Gains the services of jockey Yomar Ortiz Jr. Has a great burst of speed late. Could work into the placings.

Started at $14.00 and was ordinary when 6th last time at Keeneland but fitter for debut run. Has a nice turn of foot. Drawn the rails. Possible place chance.

Resuming after a 46 week break. Kept chasing when 3rd beaten by 4 1/4L last start at Fair Grounds and solid career start. Always seems to find the line well. Solid claims.

First up and ran 3rd first up last preparation at Del Mar. First race for a new trainer but back to a shorter distance. Should muster plenty of early toe. Best to watch and see.

Back from a 33 week spell. Started at $18.00 and weakened under pressure when 8th last start at Turfway Park but having second career run. Has plenty of early speed. Tough ask.

Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 2nd last run at Keeneland. Should race on the speed. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.
