Thistledown Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
DARK N DIRTY (5) Did well to run 3rd last start at this venue. Should jump out and bowl along. Showing good ability this preparation. Massive hope. TRUEST AIR (1) Faded in the late stages of the race when 2nd beaten by just over 7L last run here and has minimal work to do from the alley. Classy enough for this field and is one of the major players. SWEET VIVIAN (6) Was competitive when 3rd last time at this venue but down in trip. Always seems to find the line well. Is in good order and can run well. ISA FORTRESS (4) Kept chasing when 4th last start at this track but dropping in distance. Possesses very good finishing speed. Not out of this.

Displayed a strong effort throughout the race when 2nd beaten by over 7L last run at this track and drawn well. Should muster plenty of early speed. Good winning chance.

Resuming after a 37 week break. At $18.00 was nothing special when 6th last run here but has a positive alley. First start for a new trainer. Pass at this stage.

Fresh from a 30 week spell. At $11.00 ran 4th last start at Mahoning Valley but having second career run. Highly unlikely to feature here.

Odds of $5.50 and got going late when 4th last start at this track but dropping back to a shorter trip. Can go through the gears. Should not be far away.

Rattled home nicely into 3rd beaten by 6L last start here. Should be going forward early. Putting up notable efforts since returning from a spell. Will show up at the business end.
