Turfway Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Claiming
MARIPOSA MOON (3) is yet to break through in four runs. Finished fourth after being prominent at the turn at her last appearance over 1609m at this track (Synthetic) on December 18. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. SANTIANA (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when fourth in a 1308m contest at this track five weeks ago. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. DESPERATE DREAMS (1) finished out of the money two starts back then she was always well out of her ground and was beaten 18 lengths when ninth in a 1308m contest at this track five weeks ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. OF ALL THINGS (11) never really threatened when resuming last time out, finishing midfield and beaten 11 lengths over 1609m at this track (Synthetic). With blinkers added expect to see plenty of improvement.
