Thistledown Race 4

Starter Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $36,086

SADIE THE GOAT (4) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 5 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt). This doesn't look as hard so she is a major player. MIRANDA'S ROCKY (5) is having her first run since July 17. Goes very well when fresh with two wins from four starts, the latest over 1609m at Turfway Park at the start of last prep. Likely to take beating. LIBERTY BELLE (3) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1207m at this track. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with two minor placings. Worth plenty of thought. CAUSE OF LOVE (1) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths into fourth. Angel I Diaz gets the best out of this nine-year-old mare. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
