Thistledown Race 3

Maiden Special Weight

Prize Money: $41,058

VESPERA (5) finished third last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt) to make it three minor placings from seven career runs. Has weighed in at all two tries over this distance. Among the top chances. BLUE DAZZLER (2) finished out of the money two starts back then she got a long way back and was beaten 6 lengths when fourth over 1106m at this track four weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. GRAN ROXY (4) missed the frame last time when fifth at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on three consecutive occasions. Deserves a win and can improve sharply. MORRIGANA (1) returns after eight months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 1207m in stakes class at Presque Isle Downs (Synthetic). Rates highly on best form and should be in the mix.
