Mahoning Valley Race 2 - Race 2 - Allowance Optional Claiming

WILDCAT EXPRESS (5) Gave them all something to chase to win by nearly 15L last start around here. Should muster plenty of early toe. Added confidence with Jose A Bracho doing the steering. Can have an impact. THOUGHTTHATCOUNTS (2) Good effort to place 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last run here and will be well suited at the trip. David J Haldar and Megan Fadlovich deserve respect together. Goes very close. EDDIE M (3) Led all the way when winning by a margin of 8L last run around here and form has been improving over recent runs. Back to a shorter trip. Suited. P H FACTOR (4) On a quick back up. Disappointing outing when 9th last time at Turfway Park. Expecting improvement here but down in distance. Coming to a new trainer. Solid place bet prospects.
