Emerald Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
LISTENTOTHEMUSIC (3) resumed last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt) where he stalked the pace before drawing clear to score by 1.3 lengths. In great form and is well-placed to feature again. WHISKEYJACK (2) booted up from the inside draw to race on the speed only to be claimed late and finish 9 lengths away in fifth when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Will be handy in the run and should prove hard to run down. EXECUTIVE CHEF (5) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. JIN TONG (4) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by 0.3 lengths over 1106m at Turf Paradise (Dirt). Will be doing his best work late.
