Thistledown Race 6 - Race 6 - Starter Optional Claiming
INSIDE STUNT (4) Romped home to win last start here and strong performer at this distance. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 runs. Angel I Diaz has been successful previously. Genuine threat. BUCKET LIST (3) Ran 2nd last run at this track. Displays good tactical speed. Good to see Edgar Paucar is jumping on. In top form this campaign. Can take this out. BIG BUCKSALOT (6) Faded to finish 4th last run at Mahoning Valley on a heavy surface. Happy to forgive that run and proven performer at this distance. Has early speed and positions nicely. Keep in mind. OTIS OTIS OTIS (5) Rounded them up to win last time around here. Jockey Luis Antonio Gonzalez and trainer Kim A Puhl are a strong combination. Will be motoring home late. Could place.
