Assiniboia Downs Race 1

Claiming

Stake: $22,983

LEMON TWIST (1) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track over 1207m. Has a good association with Matthew Bennett with a run of four top-three results. Leading contender. HE KNOWS WE KNOW (3) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 5.5 lengths over 1207m at this track as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with two wins and three minor placings from five runs. Can measure up again. CONSPIRACYTHEORIST (6) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. BETTERMAKETHATTWO (5) returned from a spell seven weeks ago when he was beaten 5.5 lengths into fourth over 1207m at this track. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
