Thistledown Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Special Weight

DRILLING DEEP (7) First time at the races 3yo by Drill for trainer Marco Ibarra. Luis Antonio Gonzalez is a crucial engagement. Market as guide. BUMPER STICKER (5) Produced an eye catching run when 3rd last time at Mahoning Valley but will be dropping in distance. Displays very good finishing speed. Looks promising in this race. LAST MINUTE MIKEY (3) Grabbed towards the finish when 3rd beaten by 5L last run at Mahoning Valley and having second race start. Should muster plenty of early speed. Serious player. HIDDEN HEART (10) Below par performance when 8th last time at Mahoning Valley and will be facing a significant drop in distance. Gains the services of jockey Alexander Chavez. Stays under notice.
