Fair Grounds Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
UNBEATABLE (3) did a great job to score by 0.8 lengths over this course and distance when first-up from a spell last time out. Nicely placed to score once again. THAT'S RIGHT (1) was handy on straightening and went on to finish second last start over 1106m at Fairgrounds (Turf), beaten 0.8 lengths when resuming. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BRIDLE A BUTTERFLY (4) was well held in the Franklin-Simpson Stakes won by Troubleshooting over 1308m at Kentucky at his last appearance five-and-a-half months ago. Backmarker who gets home hard. Capable of a big run. VACATION DANCE (7) started at $4.10 last time but could only manage fifth, beaten 4.5 lengths, at Fairgrounds over 1106m. Top-three chance.
