Emerald Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

DYNAMIC SECRET (3) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. FORTYSHADESOFTIGER (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 1207m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. CREATIVE UNION (5) got well back over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 10 lengths away in fifth. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. LUCKY CODE (4) drifted back when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) and failed to threaten, beaten 10 lengths into fifth. Deserves another chance in this line up.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run ran second last in a small field at this track on June 26 over 1207m, 4.5 len behind West Coast Bull with 56.5kg at $5.79. Before that 2nd in a small field at this track on June 7 over 1207m, 6 len behind Goin' South with 56.5kg at $10.35. Definite chance in this small line-up.
