Thistledown Race 2

Maiden Special Weight

Stake: $55,982

AROUNDTHERIVERBEND (7) went forward last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten 1.3 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. TRUTH N SOUL (8) was in commission last time out but after being prominent at the bend disappointed in finishing fourth over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 3 lengths. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. BLUE BLOOD COWBOY (6) is a 18-start maiden finding who is knocking on the door, the last run a commendable second at this track (Dirt) over 1609m after being prominent at the corner. Going up a level this time but he deserves plenty of thought. COUPLE BEERS DEEP (1) finished 78 lengths away in sixth at his last appearance over 1609m at this track (Dirt) on June 3 after he was well back on straightening. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes.
