Featured Track/Race:   Churchill Downs – Race 6 
   
Race overview:  A very weak 30k N2L for f/ms going 7Fs on the main track. 
   
Pace:  The pace seems on the modest side, so having tactical speed and the ability to lay close seems imperative.  
   
Trends:  There’s been just four racing days, but overall, the main track has been on the fair side, with winners able to come from everywhere. 
   
Best Play:  #6 Mean Sue (9-2): Stiff class dropper was facing much better when last seen in the spring, enters fresh, has a running style that fits the race profile, and also owns a local main track win as well. 
   
Bet Types:    Aggressive WP bet and single in the middle Pk4, the late Pk5, and to kick off the late Pk4 as well.
