Thistledown Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

SWEET LEMON DROP (8) has been kept fresh since finishing fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago. Was a determined winner two starts back. Winning rider Alejandro Gomez stays aboard. Sure to play a big role. RUMBLE STRIP RON (1) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track (Dirt), most recently beaten 3.5 lengths into third over 1106m at this track (Dirt) when he was prominent throughout. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. GOTTOMAKEITHAPPEN (5) was prominent at the bend and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1106m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Looks well placed so expect another big run. PAINT THE TOWN (7) made progress last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1609m at this track. Best efforts measure up so capable of another big run.
