Fairmount Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

SMART JOKER (4) started favourite last time out over 1106m at this track (Dirt) but found one better, making it five minor placings from five starts this campaign. Suited in this and expected to go close. CITY OF CLOUDS (6) had been racing well with three consecutive placings before last start managing only fourth over 1106m at this track. Expected to improve sharply. MISTER SHARPIE (5) doesn't win out of turn but left a good impression last time out when beaten 0.4 lengths into third over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Sure to be in the mix. PURPLE OCTOPUS (1) was safely held when third last time out over 1207m at this track, beaten 6 lengths, after a win at Hawthorne at the previous outing. Best figures measure up so deserves another chance.
