Thistledown Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance
RYKA (2) has not raced since she finished off last campaign with a strong win over 1710m at Listed level at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) nine months ago. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will give a great sight. JASPER MAXIMUS (5) finished out of the money two starts back then she was always well out of her ground and was beaten 99 lengths when fifth in a 1106m contest at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MSHAWISH'GIRL (3) was a dominant winner last time at this track (Dirt) over the same distance. Is in solid form this time in work, scoring two times and placing on three occasions from nine starts. Looks one of the prime contenders. HOLIDAYS ARMY BRAT (4) was prominent at the corner and finished third last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 5 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race.

At the latest run ran last in a small field at this track on June 22 over 1106m, 99 len behind Gray Perfection with 53.5kg at $1.40. Before that couldn't go on with it; 6th of 11 at Belterra Park in LR on May 29 over 1710m, 9 len behind R U Enticed carrying 55.5kg at $3.80. Capable of a better run.
