Colonial Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
SELF TAUGHT (2) turned in a fine effort to win by 7 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BLACK WHITE N GOLD (1) made progress last time out, finishing 8 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1609m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. FIRST SHOT FIRED (5) finished sixth two runs back at this track (Turf) then improved last time out to score by 5 lengths after being in contention on the corner over 1609m at Penn National (Dirt). It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. SAN COSTANTINO (4) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 6 lengths away in second over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Hard to leave out.
