Turfway Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Allowance
SPECIAL SAUCE (1) Right in the mix last run at the track and gets a favourable alley. Has early speed and positions nicely. Coming to a new trainer but up against stronger opponents. Worth consideration. BOLT DIOR (2) Right up there last start at the track and promising career start. Tim Girten stable are in good form of late and drawn nicely. Challenged by more formidable competitors. A win wouldn't surprise. VALALA (7) Looked good when 3rd last run around here but competing in a higher grade. Cruz Fernando De La and Michael A Tomlinson demand respect when they team up. Respect in this event. FAYE'S GOLD (8) Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 3rd beaten by nearly 16L last start at Fair Grounds but taking on stronger opponents. Should muster plenty of early speed. Can't be left out of exotics.

Was agonizingly close last run here and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Displays good tactical speed. Racing for a new trainer. Genuine claims.

Close up last start at this track and good career start. Looking sharp on the track since returning from a spell and has a good draw. Up in grade. Chance and can measure up.

Started $9.50 and ran 4th last time at Gulfstream Park but going back up in distance. Should race on the speed. Up against a more competitive field. Place claims at best.

Jumped at $28.00 and came in 7th last run at the track but competing at a lower grade. Likely to settle back in the field. Down in distance. Needs to find a lot more.

Racing fresh today after a break. Finished hard to win last start at Fair Grounds and was on debut last time. Can go through the gears. Potential to run into a place.

Nice run when 3rd last run here but matched against tougher rivals. Jockey Cruz Fernando De La is in top form for this stable. Definite claims for punters.

Good result placing 3rd last start at Fair Grounds but back to a shorter trip. Likely to be well placed early. Facing stiffer opposition. Place hope.
