Thistledown Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming

MO MO LIGHTNING (1) didn't do a bad job when second last start after being prominent at the corner over 1207m at this track, beaten 0.3 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. EMOJI TIME (5) finished fifth over 1609m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on November 13. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. BEAT THE BUZZER (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. AFFAIR TO REMEMBER (3) was beaten 7 lengths into fourth at the second run back from a break in a 1207m contest at this track at his latest appearance. No surprise to see him in contention.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up ran last in a small field at this track on June 9 over 1207m, 15 len behind Spice Bag carrying 54.5kg at $12.50. Second-up 4th in a small field at this track on June 29 over 1207m, 7 len behind Unbridled O'brien carrying 54kg at $19.30. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.

Form hard to fault. Last start 4th in a small field at this track on July 21 over 1207m, 22 len behind Kettle Coalmine with 55kg at $10.40. The start before that held ground to the line 3rd of 8 at this track on June 30 over 1106m, 4.5 len behind P J's Boy carrying 55kg at $20.40. Racing well and is nicely placed.
