Colonial Downs Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
CARDINALE (1) ran below expectations last time at Delaware Park (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 16 lengths starting at $4.20. Likely improver with strong prospects. BLUE KINGDOM (6) is back at the races for the first time since December 14. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1106m at Laurel. Now under the care of new trainer Brittany Russell. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. CHADO (5) was safely held when sixth last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 18 lengths. That followed a good first-up win at Churchill Downs. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. CHASING COLTON (7) got off the mark over 1408m at Charles Town (Dirt) last start, scoring by 11 lengths. Harder this time but still one to consider.
