Fairmount Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Allowance

LUCKY BOSS (2) raced close to the lead before clearing out to score an effortless 3.5 lengths win over 1710m at this track (Dirt) last time. Going well and should give a bold sight again. CATEGORY TEN (4) lines up on the back of a 10 length fourth over 1673m at Hawthorne. Best form puts him right in this. CODE RUNNER (5) is in top form, most recently recording a win by 7 lengths over 1710m at Hawthorne (Dirt) to make it two on the bounce. Among the leading chances again. PAYNT BY LETTERS (6) was well in the market when resuming last start but failed to threaten when a disappointing fourth at Hawthorne (Dirt) over 1673m. Change of rider to Javour M Simpson who has an excellent strike rate when in the saddle, including two wins. Not to be discounted.
