Kentucky Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Cancelled
TATIANA (2) First race appearance 2yo by Authentic for Brad H Cox and will try to take advantage of the draw. Jockey Florent Geroux is a bonus. Betting as a guide. BLAZING SUNSET (1) Candy Ride 2yo having first race appearance for Joey Sharp and has the ideal draw. Jose L Ortiz is a smart booking. Watch early betting. OHANA LULU (6) Displayed good finishing speed when 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last time at Ellis Park and showing consistent performance in races. Amongst the placegetters at every start this campaign. Can go on with it. SERENAS GHOST (14) 2yo by Girvin having first race appearance for Joey Sharp. Great to see jockey Jose L Ortiz taking the ride. Watch for a sign in the market.

Odds of $12.00 and was well beaten when 6th last time at Ellis Park but having second race start. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Facing formidable opponents. Won't find this easy.

Jumped at $7.00 and weakened to finish 7th last run at Ellis Park but was a debutant last start. Back in trip. Taking on stronger competition. Very unlikely.

At $12.00 couldn't maintain the pace when 8th last start at Ellis Park but fitter for debut run. Competing in a more challenging grade. Suggest watching.

Jumped at $43.00 and ran 8th last start at Ellis Park and up against a more competitive field. Likely to get back in the field. Down in distance. Too much luck needed to come into contention.
