Dayton Raceway Race 7 - Race 7 - 1609m
CHARGING THUNDER (6) has been knocking on the door for a while then went close again last time over 1609m at Hoosier Park, finishing third and just 4 metres from the winner. This is a nice drop in grade so he is in the right race to return to the winners' list. I'M A DANCIN MAN (8) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 1609m at this track two weeks ago. FIRE INSIDE (1) is in the mix following a fifth at his first run back over 1609m at this track. Something for the Multiples: ALITTLEDAB'LLDOYA (5)

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth behind Odds On Mr Mamba at Hoosier Park over 1609m in a ISS-3CGP on October 2 at $38.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Mellow Fellow at Hoosier Park over 1609m in a ISSF-3YOCG on October 9 at $31.50. Has the right credentials to take this out.
