Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming

TATANKA (2) made progress last start to finish third over 1609m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is all set to build on that latest effort. THRU THE VINE (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fourth. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. JOHN'S ROCK (6) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 0.8 lengths at this track (Dirt). Boasts six wins here. Becerra Fernando Salazar who has five wins when partnering stays on. One of the contenders. EXTRASEXYBIGDADDEE (1) was beaten 7 lengths into fourth over 1673m at Presque Isle Downs nine days ago. Well placed to bounce back.
