Thistledown Race 2 - Race 2 - Allowance
MISSION CONTROL (5) First up from a spell of 29 weeks. Went to the front and never looked back when winning by a margin of a head last time at this track. Genuine threat. TRULY LEGIT (2) Ran on hard when winning last run at Mahoning Valley and ideal trip as proven previously. Amongst the placegetters regularly this campaign. Getting better in recent performances. Will be around the mark at odds. HIDDEN ACCESS (3) Charged home to win last start at Mahoning Valley. Has plenty of early speed. Rocco Bowen and Timothy E Hamm have shared plenty of success together. Good prospects. ATKINS (4) Threw down a serious challenge last start at Mahoning Valley. Coming to a new trainer. Alexander Chavez rates highly aboard. In fine form since resuming from a break. Not out of this.
