Thistledown Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming

COALMINER'S KITTEN (3) was in the money two starts back at Tampa Bay Downs but couldn't back it up last time when sixth, beaten 5.5 lengths, at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) over 1106m. Has the class to take this out. BIG AMADEUS (1) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing fifth over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) 33 days ago. Can feature prominently. ZIPPIN GIGI (7) registered a strong win at Mahoning Valley two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when in the firing line on the corner before finishing third over 1207m at this track, beaten 1.1 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can rediscover winning form. OLEG (6) was far from disgraced when second last start over 1106m at Mountaineer Park. That followed a win at Charles Town the start prior. Well placed and can make amends.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 33-day let-up. At the latest run got back early 3rd in a small field at Mahoning Valley on April 1 over 1207m, 4.5 len behind Parade Of Fears with 56kg at $4.40. The start before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 8 at Mahoning Valley on March 13 over 1207m, 1.5 len behind Cacique Abarrio with 56kg at $4.50. Sure to be about the money.

Racing well recently. Most recently held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at Mountaineer Park on April 13 over 1106m, 1.5 len behind Prince Prancealot with 56kg at $5.70. The run before that scored a big 4.5 len win at Charles Town March 5 over 1308m defeating Vehemently with 56kg at $1.90. No surprise if he was in the finish.

Form hard to fault. Most recently held ground to the line 3rd of 7 at this track on April 21 over 1207m, 1.1 len behind Tricky Tiger carrying 55kg at $7.90. The run before that ran on from midfield and scored a big 4 len win at Mahoning Valley March 19 over 1106m defeating Florida Gator carrying 56kg at $2.60. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.
