Presque Isle Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Starter Optional Claiming
EXPLOSIVE LADY (5) good effort to score last time out by half a length over 1609m on dirt at Thistledown. First try on synthetic today. Has really hit her straps and can win again. BRAVO KITTEN (7) finished fourth last time out over 1710m at Tampa Bay Downs Turf, beaten 2.5 lengths. This looks an ideal assignment. TINTA ROJA (3) performed above expectations last time over 1609m at Tampa Bay Downs Turf (Turf), finishing 0.8 lengths from the winner in second after starting at huge odds. Must be a chance based on that latest effort. RIGHT NOW (4) turned in a strong performance first-up when in the money at Turfway Park but disappointed last time when sixth, beaten 16 lengths, at Keeneland (Dirt) over 1308m. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.

At the latest run 2nd of 7 at Tampa Bay Downs Turf on May 1 over 1609m, 0.8 len behind Dynamic Actress carrying 54kg at $37.40. Before that settled back and ran on when 5th of 10 at Tampa Bay Downs Turf on April 3 over 1710m, 9 len behind Retail Therapist carrying 54kg at $15.10. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.

Third-up today. Resuming 2nd of 7 at Turfway Park on March 7 over 1207m, 0.8 len behind Frango Electrico with 54.5kg at $4.64. Last start ran last in a small field at Keeneland on April 22 over 1308m, 16 len behind Don't Say It carrying 53.5kg at $9.98. Fitter and should relish the step up to 1609m.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 29-day let-up. Last start 4th of 8 at Tampa Bay Downs Turf on April 19 over 1710m, 2.5 len behind Dynamic Actress carrying 54kg at $10.40. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at Tampa Bay Downs Turf on April 3 over 1710m, 1.3 len behind Retail Therapist carrying 54kg at $8.10. Doesn't need to improve that much.
