Thistledown Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
TWISTED JUSTICE (8) met with solid support last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when fourth, beaten 3 lengths. Alexander Chavez stays on and although yet to win has been in the money on two occasions. Sure to run well. BETTER HALF (3) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 2.5 lengths, over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after she was in the firing line on the turn. Will strip fitter and is among the leading chances. KETTLE KISS (7) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when fifth, beaten 21 lengths, over 1811m in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Has the talent to find the winners' list. VAL'S TWINSTAR (4) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. No reason she cannot salute again.
