Ellis Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
HIGHGROVE (5) Even though fading late still grabbed 3rd last time at Churchill Downs and matched against lesser competition. No shock to see a win. I'M GAME (1) Rocketed home when winning last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis and has drawn the rails. Will be hitting the line strongly. Can take this out. MOONLIGHT DASH (7) Ran on strongly when 2nd last run at this track and promising career start. Placed at every start this campaign but matched against a stronger field. Will give a big sight. KENZ (8) Couldn't stay in touch when 7th last start at this venue but good career start. Racing against tougher rivals. Can't be left out of trifectas.

Jumped at $16.00 and came in 6th last start around here but can find a nice position from the draw. Facing a stronger group of contenders. Not interested.

Started $16.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 5th last time at the track but suited at this distance in the past. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Very hard to have.

Was quite a handful for the competition when 3rd beaten by almost 9L last time at Churchill Downs and facing weaker opposition. Definite claims.

Rattled home nicely into 2nd beaten by close to 10L last run at this venue and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Racing in stronger company. Commands respect.
