Will Rogers Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
CD CHRISTIE JAMES (7) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 1.2 lengths when fifth over 229m at Eureka three-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. JESS DUANES CAPO (2) has filled a minor placing at both runs this time in work and looks close to a maiden win, the latest effort a third over 229m at this track (Dirt). Fitter and should go well. QUEENS ROYAL RIDE (6) is a consistent performer with six minor placings from eight starts this prep. Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 320m at this track (Dirt) after he was prominent throughout. Must be included on the strength of that form. DONT GIVE A RIP (4) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at this track but raced below expectations last time over 229m at this track (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 1.75 lengths. Nicely placed to bounce back.

Second-up. First-up after three months got back early 8th of 10 at this track on October 25 over 274m, 4 len behind Pycinvencible carrying 56kg at $25.30. Previously second-up ran last in a small field at Canterbury Park on July 22 over 274m, 5.5 len behind Sophey with 56.5kg at $14.60. Unlikely to threaten.
