Thistledown Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
MASTER OF THE NITE (6) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a second over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when beaten 0.8 lengths. Should camp just off the leaders. Among the leading chances. RAMSEY (3) finished fourth two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 3.5 lengths as public elect after being in contention on the corner over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot repeat the dose. SMASH (9) went forward over 1609m at this track (Dirt) last time and held on for third. Can cross and take up a prominent position. Solid top-three prospect. SUDDEN SHIFT (8) finished 4 lengths from the winner in fifth last time out over 1609m at this track (Dirt) on June 9. Has a formidable record at this journey with six wins and five placings from 15 starts and cannot be underestimated.
