Thistledown Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming

ILIKETHAT (2) got the job done last start by half a length at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) over 1207m. Impeccable record at this course, winning all three starts. Leading contender. SOCIAL HISTORY (1) returns after a spell of six-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1207m at Mahoning Valley. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with three minor placings. Has found the right race. WATCHOUTFORWEAVER (4) registered a strong win at Mahoning Valley two runs ago. Not disgraced last time out when prominent at the bend before finishing second over 1609m at Mahoning Valley, beaten 2.75 lengths. Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be underestimated. OLLIE'S FOLLY (7) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 1.75 lengths over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can feature in the finish.
