Thistledown Race 7

Allowance

Stake: -

NAVA'S GOLD (1) Led all the way to win by a margin of 5L last start around here and drawn the rails. Back in trip. Matched against a stronger field. Will go well. JILLY RUNS DEEP (2) Ran away with a win by a margin of 3L last run at the track and drawn nicely. First start for a new trainer. Has a nice turn of foot. Respect against this field. RYKA (6) Finished with intent when 2nd last time here and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has shown early pace in races to date. Facing a stronger grade. Definite claims. MSHAWISH'GIRL (5) Faded in the late stages of the race when 3rd last run at this venue but matched against tougher rivals. In fine form since coming back from a break. Use betting as a guide and is worth watching.

Led from start to finish when winning by a margin of 5L last start here and gets a favourable alley. Racing in stronger company. Dropping in distance. Attracts support.

Gave nothing else a chance when winning by 3L last run around here and has a positive gate. First race for a new trainer and getting better in recent performances. Solid claims.

Started $7.00 and didn't find the line when 5th last start at Belterra Park and competing in a higher grade. This one has a big task.
