Kentucky Downs Race 7

Pepsi Kentucky Downs Juvenile Fillies S. Stakes

Prize Money: $1,041,667

CONFLICT (1) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1710m at Saratoga Inner Turf (Turf) six-and-a-half weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and can win again. CARDIO CAT (5) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing 1.5 lengths away in third over 1308m at this track (Turf) when she was in the firing line all the way. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. DUTY BOUND (6) scored last start at this track (Turf) to make it two wins from two starts this campaign. Should be prominent from the outset. Will be in this for a long way. DAZZLING (8) was too good for a maiden field last start over 1609m at this track (Turf), scoring by half a length. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Re-unites with J R Leparoux who was on board last start. Harder task ahead this time but can measure up.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; won by 1.0 len at Saratoga Inner Turf on July 24 over 1710m defeating Just Peachy with 56kg at $5.03. Drawn perfectly and she is a top chance.

She is resuming after a nine weeks break. Finished off last preparation winning by 3 len Ellis Park Turf July 4 over 1609m defeating Ohana Lulu carrying 54kg at $3.17. On debut second of 7 at Keeneland April 8 over 905m, 3.5 len behind Waggley carrying 54kg at $4.21. May need the hitout.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 10 at this track on August 29 over 1308m, 1.5 len behind Duty Bound carrying 53.5kg at $4.24. The race before that 3rd of 8 in stakes class at Ellis Park at Ellis Park on August 9 over 1408m, 10 len behind Manuka Honey with 55kg at $9.75. Plenty to like about her prospects.

Third race start today. At debut, 3rd in a small field at Gulfstream Park on July 18 over 1207m, 18 len behind Girvy Girl with 54.5kg at $7.50. Second-up scored a big 4 len win at Gulfstream Park Turf on August 16 over 1509m defeating Kozy Kait with 54.5kg at $3. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
