Mahoning Valley Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming

CAPTIVATED DRAMA (5) finished third two runs back at Keeneland (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by one length over 1207m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt). Erik Barbaran scored on him last time and retains the ride. Steps up a level but he is up to the task. FIVEFIVE SIX CHAMP (3) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) over 1207m after being prominent from the outset. Has the pace to be thereabouts from the outset. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. ATKINS (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 0.8 lengths from the winner in second over 1609m at this track after being prominent at the bend. The engagement of Alexander Chavez is a positive move. Likely improver with strong prospects. DROPKICK MURPHY (6) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 1.3 lengths over 905m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) last time out. Y Yaranga who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Must be respected.
