Colonial Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight
GROVE CITY SUNSET (3) returns after nine weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 1710m at Churchill Downs (Turf). Looks the one to beat. MARCINKOWSKI (4) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 2.25 lengths from the winner in third over 1609m at Ellis Park after being in the firing line on the turn. This doesn't look as hard so she is perfectly placed to score. MAMBO QUEEN (2) was well supported when resuming last start but missed the placings in fifth over 1609m at this track (Turf). Among the winning hopes. ROYAL SUITE (9) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.8 lengths from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle.
