Assiniboia Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
COUNTING ON YOU (4) made it two wins in succession last time out when she scored by one length over 1207m at this track. Winning rider Kerron Khelawan retains the mount. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HAUTE CHARLOTTE (5) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 2.25 lengths back in fourth over 1207m at Harrah's Columbus Nebraska (Dirt). Likely to measure up. WEEKENDINDELMAR (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Has never missed the placings at the second run back. Will enjoy a drop in class so she can turn things around. APPLE FEST (7) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1106m at this track, beaten half a length. This looks a good race for her and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways.
