Thistledown Race 2

Allowance

Stake: -

PRACTICALLYELUSIVE (3) Ran 4th last start at this venue. Capable of a strong comeback and proven runner at this trip. Should be going forward early. Chelsey Keiser is a key engagement. Looks a worthwhile investment today. BAH HUMBUG (5) Claimed late when 3rd last time at this track but up in grade. Jeffrey A Radosevich stable are on a hot streak. Jockey Erik Barbaran has been successful aboard previously. Could pose a threat and expected to go very close. CLOUD STORAGE (4) Showed a good turn of foot when 2nd last run at this venue but matched against tougher rivals. Recent form of the stable is strong. Not out of this. LADY WELLINGTON (2) Basic showing when 4th last time at this venue but can find a nice position from the draw. Good to see Fernando Salazar Becerra is jumping on. Keep in mind.

Was $36.00 and tailed off to finish 10th last start at Belterra Park but will appreciate a good alley. Expecting to settle positively. Large claim helps. Big improvement required to threaten these.

Was $8.00 and appeared lacklustre when 4th last time at this track but drawn nicely. Fernando Salazar Becerra is a key booking but up against a more competitive field. One for the value hunters.

Started $5.00 and came in 4th last start at this track. Capable of a strong comeback and solid performer at this trip in the past. Shows good early pace. Will not be far away.

Managed to place 2nd last run at this venue but racing against tougher rivals. Might take a while to wind up but should be hitting top gear in the straight. Nice price for the value seekers.

Showed strength on the speed initially before fading at the end 3rd last time here but challenged by a tougher grade. Have to respect the recent Jeffrey A Radosevich form. Should progress and will be close.
