Thistledown Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance
PENSACOLA (6) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 10 starts. Did a good job last start to finish second over 1207m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. In the right race and there is no reason he cannot get the major prize. COOL COUPLE (7) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths starting at $2.90. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. KONTEEKEE (3) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing sixth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Top-three chance on best figures. PICARO (5) accounted for a maiden field over 1106m at this track (Dirt) last start, finishing 3.5 lengths ahead of the nearest rival. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped.
