Del Mar Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
SMOKEM WICKED (3) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third, beaten 2 lengths, over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Will be tough to hold out again. THUNDER RIDING (4) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 15 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Solid top-three chance on his best figures. HERE COMES TOO TOO (5) finished midfield on debut last time out, safely held 6 lengths from the winner over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Deserves another chance.

Resuming after a ten weeks break. Finished off last campaign fifth of 8 at Santa Anita June 14 over 1006m, 9 len behind King Kameha with 54.5kg at $7.70. On debut fourth of 8 at Santa Anita May 24 over 905m, 7 len behind Early Encore carrying 54.5kg at $23.40. Certainly one to consider.

Comes here off a 34-day let-up. Most recently got back early 7th of 9 at this track on July 18 over 1006m, 15 len behind Net Par carrying 55.5kg at $41.10. Before that 3rd in a small field at Los Alamitos on June 28 over 1006m, 5 len behind Prime Splash with 55.5kg at $4.10. Can atone.
