Turfway Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
TIZ CHINA (5) started at $5.41 last time but could only manage fourth, beaten 5 lengths, at this track over 1207m. Has a high cruising speed. Will prove tough to beat. SPECIAL SAUCE (4) had a bit on her rivals last time with an impressive 5 lengths win over 1308m at this track (Synthetic). Should be prominent from the outset. Will play a major role. QUICK SAND (9) comes here off a break of four-and-a-half months. Scored over 1006m at Churchill Downs at the start of last prep. Makes plenty of appeal. ASHKENAZI (1) produced another moderate effort last start when 17 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1207m at this track. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
