Turfway Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Claiming
POLICY CHANGE (6) is still a maiden after eight starts. Managed to find the placings at this track (Synthetic) two starts back before finishing eighth over 1207m at this track (Synthetic) last time. Big chance to break through. TUXEDO PARK (4) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then got a long way back last start when 6 lengths away in seventh over 1207m at this track. Won't find this as tough so he is perfectly placed to score. DISCOTHEQUE (9) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished fifth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1308m when first-up last time in work. Comes here with definite top-three claims. ELKO COUNTY (3) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months and tackles a synthetic surface for the first time. Opened last prep with sixth at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1811m. One of the main contenders.

Most recently second last of 9 at this track on February 13 over 1207m, 14 len behind Cinister Cix carrying 56.5kg at $7.28. The race before that made ground from midfield; 3rd of 12 at this track on January 2 over 1308m, 2.5 len behind Sixtyseven Mustang with 55.5kg at $6.84. Capable of a better run.
