Thistledown Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming

ILIKETHAT (1) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m after being in contention all the way. Likely improver with strong prospects. HITE (3) turned in a modest performance when third last time out over 1609m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. INTO GOLD (5) did a great job to score by a nose over today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. PAINT THE TOWN (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
