Delta Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
TRUE FIRE (3) has started twice, missing the frame on debut then doing a better job to finish second last time, beaten 2.75 lengths over 1509m at this track (Dirt). Heading in the right direction and looks the one to beat. EXCUSEMELADY'S (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1308m at this track, beaten 8 lengths into fourth. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. ENDURANT (4) debuted four weeks ago when she finished eighth over 1308m at this track (Dirt), beaten 14 lengths. Plenty of scope for improvement. ORION PENNY (6) stepped out on her debut over 1308m at this track (Dirt) four weeks ago and finished fifth, beaten 9 lengths. Expected to be right there at the business end.

Second-up. First start 8th of 10 at Evangeline Downs on August 8 over 905m, 10 len behind Classy G carrying 54.5kg at $20.20. Returned from break 3rd in a small field at this track on October 14 over 1308m, 6 len behind Cairo's Chic with 54kg at $4.40. Fitter and worth including.
