Thistledown Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming

TIME THE AVENGER (1) Picked up late ground when 2nd last run at Mahoning Valley and has drawn to do little work. Serious contender. BANG A RANG (4) Bold effort when winning last run at Mahoning Valley on a heavy rated track and showing improvement in recent outings. Has genuine claims in this race. RUN FOR REAGAN (6) Fresh after a break. Came on strongly when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last time at Mahoning Valley. Must respect in this event. CAPTURE MI (2) Felt the pinch late when 3rd beaten by 5 3/4L last time at Mahoning Valley and gets a favourable barrier. Expecting to settle positively. Jockey Alexander Chavez rates highly. Solid place bet prospects.
