Thistledown Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Special Weight
NATIVE LUCCI (5) Was strong on the speed before fading to finish 3rd beaten by 1/2L last time at this venue and facing an increased distance. Should be going forward early. Could take beating. SWEET VIVIAN (1) Hit the line well when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run here and back over extra ground. Shows good closing speed. Can save some energy from the barrier. Will be in the finish. ISA FORTRESS (4) Picked up some late ground when 4th last start here and returns to a rise in trip. Could run a race. FABULOUS SONG (2) Edged past some when finishing 4th last run at this track and has a positive gate. Expected to settle towards the tail. Going up in distance. Could run into the placings.

Good performance to run into 2nd last run at the track and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Has a great burst of speed late. Strong claims.

Was $36.00 and overtook some late when 4th last run at this track and has a good draw. Likely to get back. Facing a rise in trip. Not likely to pull off the victory.

Odds of $16.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 6th last time around here but going over extra ground. Likely to be well placed early. Too much luck needed to come into contention.

At $11.00 outpaced some runners late when 4th last start here and stepping back up in trip. Can lift in this event.

Although being out sprinted still placed 3rd last time here and racing over a longer distance. Should race on the speed. Expect a bold effort.

Was $28.00 and tailed off to finish 7th last run around here but having second career run. Going up in trip. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.
