Mahoning Valley Race 2

Allowance

Stake: -

SCAREDY CATNESS (1) Fresh after a break of 26 weeks. Led and controlled the pace when winning by almost 11L last time at Thistledown and drawn well. Back in trip. Good chance and wouldn't be surprised to see it pick up a win. CALL SHADD (3) Improved to place when 2nd last start at Thistledown but testing ability against stronger contenders. Showing great form this preparation. Definite claims. LIL TRICK (2) Lost ground in the run home when 8th last start at Keeneland. Giving another go here and hard to fault at the distance. Drawn nicely. Up against tougher opponents. Keep in mind. DISTANT GALAXY (5) Stormed home to win last time at Thistledown but taking on stronger competition. Will be motoring home late. Include in chances.

Jumped at $8.00 and didn't threaten when 6th last time at Thistledown and competing in a higher grade. In a lot of trouble.

Odds of $5.50 and faded to finish 7th last start Hollywood Casino At Charles Town Races. Capable of bouncing back and up against a less challenging field. Prefer a race with softer competition.
