Thistledown Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance

LIGHTNING SPEED (4) showed good early speed last start before boxing on well and finishing second, beaten half a length, over today's trip at Belterra Park (Dirt). Rocco Bowen gets the best out of this three-year-old gelding. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. ROLLIN IN SPIDERS (5) didn't do a bad job when second last start after being in contention on the corner over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Likely improver with strong prospects. RUN BOBBY RUN (2) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1609m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BUKELE (1) accounted for a maiden field over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last start when fresh from a break. Harder here but should be involved in the finish.

Second run back. First-up after two months won by a nose at this track on August 13 over 1207m defeating Moonlighter carrying 54kg at $4.20. Previously second-up 3rd of 8 at this track on May 16 over 1207m, 8 len behind Teaching Moment with 54kg at $15.90. Should progress from that first-up run.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 40 day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 7 at this track on July 23 over 1609m, 2.75 len behind Calorese carrying 54.5kg at $4.50. The race before that scored a big 6 len win at this track on July 8 over 1609m defeating Low Standards carrying 54.5kg at $2.30. Best form should see him measure right up.
