Thistledown Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming

HIDDEN RANSOM (1) was comfortably accounted for when fifth last time out over 1207m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. The engagement of Rocco Bowen is a positive move. Nicely placed to return to winning form. RECKLESS L J (5) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Enjoys a drop in grade so he is sure to be there at the business end. FOURDATESFORHOCO (7) finished 9 lengths behind the winner in fifth place when resuming over 1106m last start at this track (Dirt). Has been in the money at each second up start. Expected to run well. KNOCK WOOD (2) was below his best last time when eighth over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 12 lengths. Finds a nice race and can atone.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation second last of 11 at this track in the LR May 2 over 1207m, on heavy track; 14 len behind Villian with 54.5kg at $9.50. When resuming last campaign fourth in a small field at this track May 28 2025 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Ollie's Folly with 54kg at $4.20. Others make more appeal.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 42-day let-up. Last start 3rd in a small field at this track on August 24 over 1106m, 7 len behind This Time carrying 54kg at $9.80. The run before that eased back early on 4th in a small field at this track on July 29 over 1207m, 6 len behind Little Toy Guns with 54kg at $9.40. Making headway. Likely to measure up again.
