Thistledown Race 2

Best Of Ohio Cleveland Kindergarten S. Stakes

Prize Money: $142,653

BOOK VALUE (8) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten from two runs, the latest success coming over 1106m in stakes class at Belterra Park (Dirt). Had plenty in hand last time and looks the testing material again. BREAKHEART PASS (5) led all the way to score as favourite on debut over 1106m at this track (Dirt) two-and-a-half weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and can win again. BATTLE READY (3) showed good speed and fought on for second over 1106m in stakes class at Belterra Park (Dirt) last time. Capable of testing this field. SKEDAZZLE (4) finished third last time out over 1106m at Belterra Park, beaten 7 lengths. Should run very well. Something for the Multiples: EMPIRE VYBZ (7)

Last start scored a big 5.5 len win at Belterra Park LR July 17 over 1106m defeating Battle Ready carrying 54kg at $1.50. Key chance likely to give a big sight.
