Thistledown Race 6 - Race 6 - Claiming
RELISH THE RIDE (2) Resuming after a spell of 55 weeks. Finished 6th last run around here. Likely to bounce back and gets a favourable alley. Winnable race. DUSTY BILLY (6) Dashed home to win last time around here and suited at this distance historically. Made it 2 wins on the trot. Will be in the finish. OKLAHOMA JOE (1) Flashed home late into 3rd beaten by more than 8L last time at the track and has a nice advantage with a good gate. Include in chances. OLLIE'S FOLLY (4) Improved to place when 2nd last start here. Should muster plenty of early speed. One of the hopes.
