Presque Isle Downs Race 3

Allowance Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $50,000

STYLET (1) was never in contention when 8 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1207m at Colonial Downs last start, a less impressive effort than her sixth at this track the run before. Has the class to take care of this field. MS BRIGHTSIDE (4) has been in good form, scoring three back at this track (Synthetic) then placing twice in a row, most recently finishing second when she was in the firing line all the way over 1673m at this track (Synthetic). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. LA ARTISTA (5) found plenty to salute by 2.25 lengths three runs back at this track (Synthetic) before filling a minor placing at her last two starts. Commendable record at this trip with a win and two minor placings and is capable of going well. BORDER CONTROL (3) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last time over 1673m at this track (Synthetic), beaten 6 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 37-day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 9 in Listed grade at Thistledown at Thistledown on August 8 over 1811m, 5 len behind Candlelight Hours carrying 56kg at $12.50. The start before that ran on from midfield; 3rd of 11 in Listed grade at Belterra Park Turf at Belterra Park Turf on July 17 over 1710m, 4 len behind Awesomesauce with 54kg at $6.70. Only has a small field to contend with and looks hard to beat.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
