Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming
CAT'S CRADLE (2) Finished with purpose when winning last start at Mahoning Valley and putting a tidy record together so far. Been in the money 3 from 3 attempts this preparation. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. IT'S BROWNS TIME (9) Gave nothing else a chance when winning by 3 3/4L last time at Mahoning Valley but up against a more competitive field. Displays good tactical speed. Winnable race. RON DAH LOU (3) First up from a spell. Rounded them up to win last start at Mahoning Valley but facing formidable rivals. Should jump out and bowl along. Could go well. SAY SAW (4) Produced an eye catching run when 3rd last time at Mahoning Valley and challenged by weaker competitors. Has early speed and positions nicely. Placed at every start this campaign. Can't knock.

Resuming after a break. Rocketed home when winning last start at Mahoning Valley but racing in stronger company. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Nice value bet.

Ran on strongly when 3rd beaten by 7L last time at Mahoning Valley and taking on a lower class of opponents. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Has a credible chance.

Jumped at $6.00 and average effort when 4th last run at Mahoning Valley and will be down in distance. Might be ridden for luck. Stepping up to a higher level. Has to improve out of sight.
