Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming

MAGIC MOTOWN (7) lifted strongly to score by 5 lengths three runs back at this track (Dirt) before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Has sound form at this track and distance with a win and two minor placings from four runs. Well placed and should be in the finish. PECKS NOT BAD (2) is in great form, lifting strongly to score last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt) to make it two in succession. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will play a major role. CANNON MAN (5) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished third at this track (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by 2.75 lengths last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Going up a level this time but he is up to the challenge. PARTY POOPER (3) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 1207m at this track, beaten 14 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Worth another chance.
