Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance

MARK MY WORDS (2) finished fourth, beaten 11 lengths, last time out over 1811m in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Has a very good record here including two wins from four starts. Bold showing expected. TROUBLE IN MOTOWN (4) continues to race well with a win two back at this track (Dirt) before finishing 2.25 lengths away in third last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Proving a good combination with David J Haldar with three straight placings. Bold showing expected. SAVING HEART (3) is in fine form, filling a minor placing again last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) to make it five top-three finishes on the trot. Performs well here with minor placings at all five runs. Strong claims on his best form. MR. BOGAN (6) has not won for a long while. Last raced on August 3 when beaten 5 lengths into fifth at this track (Dirt) over 1106m. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. Something for the Multiples: LILTONYTWOPHONES (5)

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 58 day let-up. At the latest run sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 in stakes class at this track at this track on June 20 over 1811m, 11 len behind Strategic Profile with 55kg at $2.90. Before that held ground to the line 2nd of 9 in stakes class at Belterra Park at Belterra Park on May 29 over 1710m, 0.3 len behind Water Into Wine with 55.5kg at $1.30. Can do much better.
