Churchill Downs May 7, 2022

Race 2: Allowance Optional Claiming

#2 Stayed In for Half has been solid in three starts and fits with this group. #4 Surfer Dude ran second in a stakes race last time out at Keeneland and gets Irad back aboard for the second straight race.

Race 3: Allowance

#7 Final Belle has been a close fourth in two starts this year at Gulfstream Park and Keeneland. Today could be the day for her. #8 Talking Book should improve with Rosario aboard for the second time.

Race 4: Allowance Optional Claiming

#2 Bye Bye Bobby gets a big rider upgrade today, which should help, while also getting class relief in this spot. #1 McLaren Vale moves barns again today, while getting back to facing just 3-year-old’s in this spot.

Race 5: Churchill Distaff Turf Mile Stakes (G2)

#8 Speak of the Devil makes her United States debut for Chad Brown while getting Flavien Prat aboard, which is a great sign. She has won 2 in a row while earning Timeform speed figures that stand out amongst this group. #7 In Italian will go for her fourth straight win after an impressive Honey Fox Stakes score last time out.
