Hawthorne Race 5 - Race 5 - Starter Optional Claiming
WE MISS ARLINGTON (5) finished 14 lengths behind the winner in seventh over 1106m at Fairmount Park (Dirt) last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Has a strong record here, including six wins. Sure to go well. RACARINO (4) was quickly into stride and went on to score by half a length last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. STRANGE ARRANGE (1) proved too strong last start and scored by 3.5 lengths over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Has seven wins here. Should camp just off the leaders. Sure to be competitive. DOUBLE THUNDER (2) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on October 30, finishing ninth and beaten 19 lengths over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Looks a strong top-three prospect.
