CHURCHILL DOWNS ~ STARS II

POST-SCRATCHES

4th: MSW, 2yo-F, 7f (P3, DD)

Notable pedigrees throughout including Lady Irene (a half to Beholder/Mendelssohn) and Medaglia Forever (Md’O out of Forever Unbridled).. Several of those that have run have some quality about them and it seems like the well bred firsters could impact as well..

Worthington and Deer District are forward-going and have right style to sit behind what looks like real pace. If looking for an oddball price, Scooteranddabigman is interesting with Mor Spirit turning out to be successful with turf movers (and off track runners). John Langemeir quite clever and reaches for Morales with whom he clicks at 24%..
