Colonial Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Special Weight
DON'T GHOST ME (1) returned last time with a solid second at this track (Dirt) over 1207m after being prominent at the turn. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. NYQUIST FREQUENCY (3) was in the firing line all the way and fought on for second last start over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Nicely placed to take this out. MIKE'S MAGIC (4) improved last time out, finishing 0.6 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1207m at Monmouth Park after being in contention on the bend. Meets a stronger field but he is worth serious consideration. CHOWSER (2) was never in contention last time over 1673m at Monmouth Park (Dirt) when he finished fifth, beaten 6 lengths. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment.
