Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance

CITY SCENE (5) returns from a break of six-and-a-half months. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1207m at this track. Goes very well when fresh including two wins. Expected to continue the good form from last campaign this time around. CANDLELIGHT HOURS (2) is back from a break of six months after stringing together two minor placings prior to spelling. Has a solid first-up record. Has a good record here at this journey with three wins and seven minor placings from 11 starts. Expected to be in the finish. LIONISTIC (6) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 2.25 lengths over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). That continued the good form this campaign, with four wins and two minor placings from 12 runs. Should be in the finish. BELLE BOTTOMS (3) closed last campaign with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at Mahoning Valley five months ago. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Not to be discounted.
