Nothing Better than Churchill and Arlington Park

Spring is in full bloom and there is nothing better than horse racing at Churchill and Arlington Park.

Churchill Race 9 {7 furlongs~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}
A nice field of eight go to the gate in this the second to last race of the pick six.  It should be mentioned that no one hit the pick six on Derby day and it has rolled over to close to 1 million dollars with the full expectation that it will rise to 3 million dollars.  The pick six begins with race five.  A very slight edge goes to Kimmyv (Bridgmohan / Baffert) who is 100% in the money for her five race career.  She has the second highest last out speed number and four monster workouts leaing into this race.  Canadian Strom (Torres / Oliver) appears to be the top challenger with the highest last out speed number and two robust workouts.  She has also gone this distance with a very good speed number.  Millenia (Albarado / Werner) will be in the chase in the stretch.  She will be moving up in distance with a two race progression and two strong workouts.  Middle March (Borel / Penrod) will be the surprise as the most experienced dirt runner and a love for the Churchill track.  She will be coming down in distance after a layoff and should be ready with four superb workouts.  Derby hero, jockey, Calvin Borel will ride Middle March.  Ready for excitement at Churchill?
