Thistledown Race 5

Maiden Special Weight

Prize Money: $50,977

SPECTACULAR D'ORO (6) is on debut for the David Wolochuk stable. Three-year-old gelding by Bolt D'oro from Agressive Elegance. Bold showing expected, with a betting watch advised. A VAN ON THE RUN (5) finished second, beaten 0.8 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after he was in the firing line on the corner. Nicely placed to take this out. EL SORDO (3) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Bold showing expected. SYNERGISTIC (4) is a six-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 11 lengths when fourth over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.

Second-up. Comes off a 57-day let-up. First-up after nine months ran last in a small field at this track on May 6 over 1106m, 11 len behind Lucky Victor carrying 56kg at $1.50. Previously second-up 9th of 11 at this track on May 11 2023 over 1207m, 9 len behind Man's Choice carrying 51.5kg at $10.50. Should progress from that first-up run.
