Thistledown Race 6 - Race 6 - Mdn Claiming
COOKIE TIME (5) resumes from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish fifth at the latest run over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Can make a winning return. AIR SAHARA (6) finished 4 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being prominent at the corner over 1106m at Horseshoe Indianapolis, an improvement on her fifth at Horseshoe Indianapolis the run before. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. MAZARN (3) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1106m at Mountaineer Park, beaten 4 lengths. Taking on a better line-up this time but she is up to the challenge. GAMAY (1) was never in contention last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when she finished sixth, beaten 15 lengths. Likely to be thereabouts.
