Churchill: Cardinal Hcp G3 $100K

Long Approach...Just-miss second in this race last year. Off a long time but expect trainer to have her ready.
Lemon Chiffon...Invades from SoCal where she faced some good ones. However, could only managed a third-place finish when she ventured here earlier this year -- but the extra furlong might help today.

...$1 exacta box top four.
