Race Tip

ROYAL CAUSEWAY (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1m at Churchill Downs, beaten only 1. 5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. MARKET RUNNER (11) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1m1/2f at this track, beaten 5. 5 lengths into fifth. Nicely placed to break the maiden status. SHUGGY (8) has not raced since his debut on October 26 over 1m at Churchill Downs (Turf) when he finished eighth, beaten 5 lengths. Better for that run and can improve sharply. FAKE SMART (5) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last start over 1m1/2f at this track (Dirt), beaten 11 lengths. Should take a lot from that hit-out. Nicely placed to fill a top-three spot again.
