Fair Grounds Race 2 - Race 2 - Starter Optional Claiming

GUILE (5) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by half a length over 1207m at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from four runs. Top chance again. TIME TO PARTY (2) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1710m at this track (Dirt), getting home by 0.8 lengths. Winning rider Isaac Castillo retains the mount. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. METATRON'S MUSE (6) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 3 lengths away in third over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. NOTION (1) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when sixth, beaten 12 lengths, at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
