Colonial Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance
TWILIGHT DELIGHT (4) showed good early dash and raced on the speed at the first run back from a break last start before fading to finish 4.5 lengths back in fifth over 1207m in stakes class at Aqueduct Turf (Turf). Will be handy in the run and should prove hard to run down. DOUBTING THOMAS (10) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 1207m at Presque Isle Downs when coming back from a spell. Jorge Ruiz who has two wins when partnering stays on. Fitter and is expected to feature. PROTON (1) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Laurel Turf, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner. Sure to measure up. SPIDEY MAN (8) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 3 lengths at Laurel (Dirt) over 1207m. Sure to be thereabouts.
