Thistledown Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Claiming

VANADIUM (3) returns after three-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1609m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). Has ability and sure to prove tough to beat. MO MO LIGHTNING (5) turned in a nice run last time to finish third over 1207m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. INDY'S HOPE (4) is a 17-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent outing over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after he got a long way back in the run. Worth including in this suitable contest. PYRAMID SCHEME (2) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was never in contention over 1207m at Mahoning Valley, beaten 41 lengths into tenth. Faces an easier assignment so she will be hard to beat.
