Turf Paradise Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
TRAIN STATION (7) is yet to break through after six career starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at this track (Turf) two starts back before finishing sixth over 1609m at this track (Turf) last start. Won't get too many better chances to open her account. THEBIGGERTHEBETTER (6) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 2.75 lengths from the winner in second over 1106m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Nicely placed to find winning ways. JUST A HUNCH (1) has not raced since her debut back on November 16 when she finished seventh over 1106m at Del Mar (Dirt). Not to be discounted with the blinkers applied. SPARKLEY BARKLEY (5) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of six months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 1106m at Emerald Downs (Dirt). Solid top-three hope.
