Thistledown Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming

BALKI BARTOKOMOUS (6) Managed to run into 2nd last start at this track but up against stronger opponents. Exhibiting good form this campaign. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. HE IS DYNAMIC (2) Didn't find the line when 5th last time at Belterra Park. Happy to overlook that run and gets a favourable barrier. Should be swooping on the field late. Right in this. COUNTING ON CLYDE (5) Faded away to finish 4th last run here. Expected to rebound but racing against tougher rivals. Should be going forward early. Worth strong consideration. DONALD'S NATION (1) Looked flat when 5th last time at the track but has drawn the rails. Has a nice turn of foot. Testing ability against stronger contenders. Not out of this.

Jumped at $16.00 and average effort when 5th last time at the track but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Up in class. A threat to the other main hopes.

Was $8.50 and couldn't stay in touch when 5th last time at Belterra Park. Happy to overlook that run and can find a nice position from the draw. Commands respect.

Started at $12.00 and folded up in the straight when 6th last time around here and facing stiffer opposition. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Prefer to watch.

Started $43.00 and gave away some ground when 4th last start here and taking on stronger opponents. Will be positive in the run early. Needs a lot of luck.

At $18.00 didn't attack the line when 4th last run here. Expected to rebound but rising in grade. Should come to hand quickly. Expecting a solid performance.
