Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance
CAPO LUCA (3) looks ready to win after a fast-finishing 2nd at Thistledown over 1609m, beaten 1L, and he maps to get a similar run. TATANKA (2) is a key chance back to his preferred trip, having won 6 of 22 at 1609m and was close-up 4th at Mahoning over the mile two back, beaten 1.8L. BRICK AMBUSH (1) draws the rail and returns to his best distance where he’s 4-from-9, and his prior Thistledown mile runs include a narrow 2nd then a win at Mahoning. CHANNEL FURY (4) is a seasoned local with strong Thistledown and mile records and must be kept safe.
