Thistledown Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Optional Claiming

THE MIRACLE KIUT (2) finished 4 lengths adrift in fourth when resuming after a spell at Mahoning Valley over 1207m last time out. Use her as an anchor in multiples. S'MOR CRAFTY (3) has scored at her last two starts, most recently by 0.3 lengths over 1609m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). That continued the solid form this campaign, with four wins and two minor placings from 10 starts. Top chance again. SHANGHAI DELIGHT (1) finished 4 lengths adrift in fourth at Mahoning Valley over 1207m at her latest appearance. No excuses today in this small field. HIGH FIRE (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1609m at Mahoning Valley, beaten 9 lengths into seventh. Nicely placed to find some form.

Second run back. First-up after a year in a small field at Mahoning Valley on April 7 over 1207m, 4 len behind Cause Of Love with 56kg at $3.90. Previously second-up ran last in a small field at this track on August 1 2024 over 1207m, 12 len behind Midnight Wonder with 54kg at $11.70. Fitter again and a winning hope.

Recent form sound. At the latest run settled well back; won by a 0.3 len at Mahoning Valley April 6 over 1609m defeating Echo Valley with 56kg at $10.20. The run before that came from midfield and scored a big 6 len win at Mahoning Valley February 20 over 1207m defeating Lady Loves Money carrying 56kg at $2.90. Top chance to claim this against limited opposition.

Comes off a 30 day let-up. At the latest run ran last of 7 at Mahoning Valley on March 24 over 1609m, 9 len behind Lucky Penny Rose with 56kg at $15.80. The race before that second last in a small field at Mahoning Valley on March 5 over 1609m, 12 len behind Oh Glorious Day with 56kg at $6.70. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.
