Thistledown Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming

GAPPER (1) hit the frame two starts ago at Belterra Park but ran below par last time when seventh and beaten 10 lengths over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. LUNCHATTHELIZARD (3) went forward last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten 2.75 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. QUIET AMIGO (6) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Look for a better run this time out. SHOW SLIDING HOME (5) was in the money first up at this track then could only manage fifth last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Better placed this time and can feature.
