Hawthorne Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Claiming
JACKSON'S BUDDY (1) last appeared four weeks ago over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis when he finished second. This is his first run for the Brian Cook stable. Can make an immediate impact for the new mentor. MY LAST ESCAPADE (2) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing 13 lengths away in second over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when he was prominent throughout. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. LUCKY SEVEN (3) is a five-year-old gelding who is still a maiden after 12 starts but has been in the placings two times. Never a threat when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), finishing 17 lengths from the winner in third. Settles back early but winds up late. Among the main hopes. BLACK RUSSIAN (5) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing 10 lengths back in fourth over 1509m at this track (Turf). Finds a suitable assignment this time and can improve.
