Thistledown Race 3 - Best Of Ohio Governor's Buckeye Cup S. Stakes

WHO DEY (4) returns after a spell of ten weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1609m at Churchill Downs. Boasts a first-up record of three wins and three placings from seven starts. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. FAIR AND SQUARE (1) was sent out favourite last time when second over 1609m at this track (Dirt) after he was up on the pace all the way. Has a liking for this longer trip. Expected to run well. EKATI'S WAY (6) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 3 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up. PRIVATE MOMENT (7) is coming along nicely this prep, scoring by a nose last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect another big run.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up ran last in a small field at this track on May 21 over 1609m, 14 len behind Sweet As Sin carrying 54kg at $3. Second run from a spell 2nd in a small field at this track on July 13 over 1609m, 3 len behind Ekati's Way with 54kg at $2.40. Fitter and should appreciate the step up to 2012m.
