Thistledown Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
DIVINE FASHION (1) did a good job last start to finish third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m, beaten 0.8 lengths. Big threat over the longer journey. SACRED CONNECTION (5) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 13 lengths starting at $8.30. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. BANK BUSTER (3) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her last appearance at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) over 1609m on December 3. Makes plenty of appeal. MAGIC PALACE (4) settled at the rear then stoked up nicely in the straight to finish fourth over 1207m here last time. One of the main contenders.
