Interesting start to the Churchill Downs meet with some big prices after they had to shift their meet in May/June over to Ellis amid controversy. More notable than the generalized "big prices" statement:

Steve Asmussen:

9/14: 4th at 3-1, 2nd choice.
9/15: 5th at 5-2, 2nd choice. 6th at .90-1, favorite. 6th at 24-1. 6th at .51-1, favorite.
9/16: 7th at 9-2, 3rd choice. Still running at 1-5, favorite LOL.

Brad Cox:

9/15: 10th at 9-1, 6th at 5-2, 5th at 5-1.
9/16: Last at 6-1, 6th at 6-5, Distant 2nd at 2-1.

Diodoro:

Two wins on opening day. By 9L and by 3L. Guy barely got 2 wins at the Spa this year.


Still some opportunities today to bet against the first two if interested. I actually agree with the Campbell horse posted earlier this week off a likely work with an older stablemate and will bet to win.
