Hawthorne Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming
MOONRISE DRIVE (4) is back from a break of ten weeks. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when eighth over 1308m at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Jareth Loveberry goes well on this six-year-old and is back on top today. Well placed and should be in the finish. WOLF HUNTER (1) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at this track (Dirt) over 1006m last time, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Finds the right race this time and can make amends. GAME SANTA (5) settled well back and failed to come on last start when fourth over 1006m at this track (Dirt) at his first run back from a break. Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. CANTARITO (2) returns from a layoff of six-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1106m at Horseshoe Indianapolis. Now under the care of new trainer Heriberto Villalobos. Sure to make his presence felt.
