Ellis Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
IRISH LAW (4) Assumed control from the start when winning by 2L last run here and promising career start. Showing improvement in recent outings. Underrated. NATURAL RIGHTS (6) Resuming after a spell of 51 weeks. Competed in a tight contest last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis and competing in a less challenging grade. First appearance for a new trainer. No shock to see a win. WINTER HOLIDAY (11) Fresh after a break. Comprehensive victory when winning by 4 1/4L last run at Turfway Park and showing consistent performance in races. Respect in this event. PATROL SQUAD SIX (3) Good run when placing 3rd last start around here but challenged by a tougher grade. Running with confidence this campaign. Appears well in this.

Showed a good turn of foot when 3rd last start around here but up against a higher level of opposition. Showing positive results this campaign. Has strong claims.
