Colonial Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Optional Claiming
RICHEZTOO (6) Dictated the tempo to win by a margin of 6L last time at Churchill Downs but taking on stronger competition. Will be pushing for a forward position early. No shock to see a win. BOLD FACT (1) Good run when placing 2nd last start at this track and has a nice advantage with a good barrier. First race for a new trainer. Large claim helps. Goes close. MR RANDY (5) Charged home to win last start around here but up against a more competitive field. Have to respect the recent stable form and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Should go close. ON THE LEVEL (2) Tailed off to finish 6th last time at Ellis Park. Is capable of a resurgence and back in an easier grade. Has good finishing speed. Not out of this.

Couldn't maintain the pace when 6th last time at Ellis Park. Is capable of a resurgence and lining up against easier rivals. Can go through the gears. Winning chance at nice odds.

Was $8.50 and advanced late into 4th last time at this venue but facing formidable opponents. Paco Lopez is a bonus. Will be hitting the line strongly. Looks a nice proposition.

Kept running on late when 2nd beaten by 1 3/4L last run here but facing a stronger group of contenders. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Very minor chance.

Finished hard to win last start at the track and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Tim Girten stable are in good form of late. Worthy of strong consideration.

Led throughout to win by a margin of 6L last time at Churchill Downs but down in distance. Should muster plenty of early speed. Matched against tougher rivals. Will go close here.
