Colonial Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming
OVER MY CENTS (4) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 0.8 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1106m at Laurel Turf. Goes up a rung or two but she is good enough to take this out. THOUSAND STORY'S (2) ran below expectations last time at Delaware Park (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 11 lengths starting at $7.40. Meeting a deeper field this time but she is up to the challenge. TURKISH BREEZE (3) fought on well for second last start over 1207m at Laurel (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Likely to play a major role. FINANCE FINANCE (5) finished fourth when first-up from a spell last start over 1207m at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic) after racing on the pace for much of the way. Solid top-three prospects. Something for the Multiples: SET ABLAZE (1)

Second run back. First-up after three months ran last in a small field at Presque Isle Downs on June 3 over 1207m, 9 len behind Oklahoma Smoke with 53.5kg at $3.40. Previously second-up won by 2.5 len at Turfway Park February 26 over 1308m defeating Hope Rising with 54.5kg at $4.22. Expecting improvement and is among the better chances.
