[Bogey]

Churchill Downs POST SCRATCHES - FAST / FIRM


R7 - MSW 50k

#6 Spinning Wheel (5-2) - Half to '14 Preakness runnerup (Ride On Curlin) should not have an issue going two turns and is coming in off a bullet. 3RD
#2 Native Talent (8-1) - Beautifully bred filly finally gets a dry fast track around two turns, which could see her make a positive move forward.
#1 The Strip (4-1) - McPeek always points toward this meet and he's successful with the Turf to Dirt angle.
#3 Tiz Kismet (3-1) - Two decent efforts to start career and gets an advantageous inside post for start #3. 2ND

R8 - G3 Louisville Handicap (Turf 12F)

#5 Majestic Harbor (7-2) - Not much speed lined up and I expect Lanarie to have him forwardly placed throughout. Former G1 winner.
#8 Golden Soul (4-1) - Like the fact that Robby returns and it doesn't hurt that this former Kentucky Derby placed runner is 2 for 2 on the Matt Winn turf course. 3RD
#2 Cozy Kitten (8-1) - Probably not as good as before, but his return earlier in the month off the bench was encouraging.
#3 Calvados (Arg) (5-1) - Consistent sort is definitely in the mix with these.

R9 - Clm 30k B

#3 Thunder's Rollin' (2-1) - Has found a level and distance to be successfull and that's why Asmussen always wins at a high %. 3RD
#5 Turn Up the Lights (7-2) - Has improved since being switched to new barn and fits well here. WON $6.80
#1 Z Big Apple (4-1) - Expecting bobblehead to gun from the get go and hope to hold on late.
#7 Ride n' Reel (5-1) - Looks to have enough early zip to clear the field early and barn does well 1st off the claim. 4TH

R10 - MSW 50k (Turf 9F)

#7 Sonoma d'Oro (8-1) BEST BET - Her race at Gulfstream on a firm course was impressive considering she started so wide. The firm course is the key.
#1 Goodbye N Her Eyes (6-1) - Leparoux fits this filly like a glove and will save ground and uncork a late rally.
#4 Killarney Rose (5-2) - Top turf barn is hard to toss under any circumstance and this runner might relish the extra ground here.
#3 Cash in My Pocket (2-1) - She's consistent, but she's a risk at low odds because she has shown to hang late. WON $6.00

PK4 - 1 2 3 5 6 / 5 8 / 1 3 5 / 1 3 4 7 = $60 for $.50
