Holiday racing @ Thistledown

Race 3
RACINDA looks faster than the rest of this field on paper. The class drop will probably make her a prohibitive favorite. After allowing the early speed to clear, she took aim on the leaders, took control by early stretch, the easiest of winners ($2.10)

Race 4
YOUCANSEEMECOMING can afford to let up a little in the first quarter and still beat the other Thistledown horses. The Mountaineer invader adds intrigue to the mix. Set and controlled the pace leaving enough to out last the others (1st by 3. $3.00)

Race 5
VALENTINUS drops and stretches, a move that has been successful for the Rettelle barn several times this spring. Seemed to be in great position coasting just off the pace, cut the corner well, took to runs at the leader while along the rail during the stretch drive, but flattened out late (3rd by 1)

Pick 3 (races 3-4-5) 2/1,3,5/1 (2/4-1-3 paid $15.40)

Race 8
ADREAMFORDARLENE ran quicker internal fractions in his last than those coming out of the Classen Stakes. He could provide and interesting alternative to PAY THE MAN, at a good price. Ran evenly, back by about six lengths throughout - did not belong with this bunch
