Turf Paradise Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Optional Claiming
RENO (2) went forward when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten 2.25 lengths. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. HOLD YOUR TEMPER (1) is fresh from a spell of 17 months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Listed level at Elko County Fair (Dirt) over 1207m. In a different yard now. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. ROCKSALOT (7) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished tenth at Santa Anita (Dirt) over 1207m when first-up last time in work. Sure to make his presence felt. PROWLING CAT (3) finished third first-up at this track then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fourth at this track (Dirt) over 1207m when beaten 8 lengths. Has the pace to be thereabouts early. Suited here and can sneak into the finish.

Third-up today. Resuming ran on from midfield; 3rd of 10 at this track on January 19 over 1207m, 6 len behind Hela Forever with 56kg at $35. Second run from a spell 4th of 9 at this track on February 4 over 1207m, 8 len behind Ultra Violence carrying 56kg at $4.70. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.
