Colonial Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
BETSYLICIOUS (7) returns from a spell of ten weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when fourth over 1106m at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt). Samuel Marin stays on. Bold showing expected. LADY ZETA (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when ninth over 1106m at Laurel Turf three-and-a-half weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. LADY CHARLOTTE (3) scored a one length win on dirt at Laurel two starts back but then disappointed on turf last time at Laurel Turf over 1106m when 4 lengths from the winner in seventh. In the mix on best and gets chance to atone. OK BY ME (1) saluted over 1106m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) at her most recent appearance on March 13. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.

Filly returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last campaign post a big 5 len win. Sam Houston Park March 13 over 1106m defeating Bali Girlee carrying 55kg at $2.30. Previously first up; fourth in a small field at Sam Houston Park January 24 over 1006m, 4 len behind Hideki with 55kg at $10.80. A big run will not surprise.
