Race Tip

GILDED RULER (6) lines up on the back of a 2.2.5 lengths fourth over 5f at Churchill Downs. Sure to prove tough to beat. BAD BEAT BRIAN (4) ran below expectations last time after being in the firing line on the bend at Churchill Downs (Turf), finishing sixth and beaten 2.5 lengths starting at 13/2. Is unbeaten in two starts at this course and distance. Beautifully placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. LINZER (7) proved too strong two runs ago at Kentucky. Couldn't follow that up last time out when seventh over 5½f at Keeneland, beaten 24 lengths. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. AMERICAN KNOW HOW (1) is having his first run since winning by 1.75 lengths six weeks ago over 5f at Delta Downs. Has transferred to the Thomas Morley stable over the break.
