Mahoning Valley Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming
JUDGE RULES (4) raced on the speed from the outset when resuming last start and finished third, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. FRAME UP (5) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 0.8 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the turn. Nicely placed to take this out. SLIGOTIME (1) turned in a modest performance when sixth last time out over 1609m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. CHARLIESLITLDEVIL (6) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths away in second over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Hard to leave out.
