Thistledown Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance

VDAYTOTHETENACIOUS (1) has been in good form, scoring three back at this track (Dirt) then placing twice in a row, most recently finishing second when he was in the firing line all the way over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SAVING HEART (4) was a real eye-catcher last start, coming from the tail over 1207m at this track (Dirt) to finish half a length from the winner in second. Performs well here with minor placings at all four runs. Likely to feature. ROMANIAN PRINCE (2) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when fourth, beaten 13 lengths, over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Has the talent to figure prominently. BIGPICLITTLEPIC (3) drifted back when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) and failed to threaten, beaten 19 lengths into seventh. Jose A Bracho has scored on him five times and is back in the saddle. One of the better hopes.

Racing well recently. At the latest run ran second last in a small field at this track on July 13 over 1609m, 13 len behind Ekati's Way carrying 55kg at $7.70. The run before that won by 1.5 len at this track May 16 over 1609m defeating Mr Bogan carrying 54kg at $2.10. Can make amends.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 7 at this track on July 21 over 1207m, 0.5 len behind Mellifluous carrying 51kg at $3. The run before that 2nd in a small field at this track on June 29 over 1106m, 6 len behind Invictus carrying 51kg at $4.70. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.

Returns from a 50-day let-up. Most recently ran last in a small field at this track on June 15 over 1207m, 6 len behind Boots Malone carrying 56kg at $17.90. The race before that won by 2.75 len at this track June 1 over 1207m defeating Wildcat Express carrying 54kg at $1.20. Form doesn't read well but he is a genuine chance.
