Turfway Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
COVE SPRING (1) improved last time out, finishing 8 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1609m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. LIGHTEN (3) turned in a moderate effort on debut last start when fifth at this track (Synthetic) over 1207m, beaten 7 lengths. Has upside and deserves another chance. RHAPSODY IN MOTION (8) is yet to break through in six runs. Finished sixth at her last appearance over 1710m at this track (Synthetic) on December 21. Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. PAPAS LADY (4) faced the starter for the first time and finished fourth last start at this track (Synthetic) over 1207m, beaten 4 lengths. Worth following up.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 50-day let-up. Last start 3rd of 12 at this track on December 3 over 1609m, 8 len behind Queenstown with 54kg at $4.96. The start before that 4th of 11 at Churchill Downs on October 31 over 1408m, 7 len behind Paige Turner carrying 54kg at $18.84. Makes plenty of appeal from the inside stall.
