Thistledown Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Special Weight
WHISKEY POINT (5) Finished well when 2nd beaten by 1L last start at this track but up in weight. Luis Antonio Gonzalez and Kim A Puhl are a strong duo. Main hope. CAPTAIN CARNEY (1) 3yo by War Of Will having first start for Marco Ccamaque and has minimal work to do from the barrier. Watch for a sign in the market. USAIN TH (4) Back from a break. Good performance to run into 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at this track and form has been improving over recent runs. Capable of taking this out. KUKUK (3) In the money when 3rd last run here and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Displays good tactical speed. Good to see jockey Alexander Chavez is jumping on. Place preferred.

Started $23.00 and struggled with the pace when 8th last time at Mountaineer Park but will try to take advantage of the barrier. Will be dropping in distance. Hard to entertain.

Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at this venue and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Will be positive in the run early. Alexander Chavez is a bonus. Not ready for this level.

First up from a break. Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at this venue and showing improvement in recent outings. Very capable of taking this out.

Ran on strongly when 2nd beaten by 1L last start at the track but carrying more weight than last time. Luis Antonio Gonzalez consistently performs well for this stable. Has a good chance.
