Harrah's Columbus Nebraska Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming

COPANELLO BAY (5) did a great job to score by 0.3 lengths over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Likely to be there at the finish again. JAMES'S MOONSHINE (4) made progress last start to finish second over 1207m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. MOJITO (2) turned things around last start and got the job done by 2.75 lengths after being prominent at the bend over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to take this out. OPTIMAL (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1207m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
