Churchill Downs Race 7

Fasig-Tipton Locust Grove S. Stakes

Stake: $678,899

ROYAL SPA (3) finished fourth last time out over 1710m at Del Mar, beaten 8 lengths. Has the right credentials. ALPINE PRINCESS (2) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 1.4 lengths away in third over 1609m in Listed grade at Ellis Park (Dirt). Meeting a deeper field this time but she deserves plenty of thought. REGALED (1) performed above expectations when resuming last time over 1609m at Listed level at Ellis Park (Dirt), finishing a nose from the winner in second after starting at huge odds. Must be a chance based on that latest effort. FREE LIKE A GIRL (5) showed good early speed and raced on the pace when first-up after a spell last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1408m at Listed level at Charles Town (Dirt). Worth including.
