Mahoning Valley Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

THE SHOE LADY (2) won last start over 1673m at this track (Dirt), making it seven victories from 12 appearances this time in. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Leading contender. GOSHEN (5) pushed forward and led throughout to score a 1.3 lengths win over 1673m at this track (Dirt) last time. Should be ridden positively again and is right in this. REDWHITEANDTACOS (3) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 14 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1207m at this track six weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Should camp just off the leaders. One of the main contenders. CANDYMONIUM (6) is back at the races for the first time since December 11. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1609m at Thistledown. Has to be respected.

Comes off a 43 day let-up. Most recently 5th of 8 at this track on January 6 over 1207m, 14 len behind Absolute Miracle with 57kg at $10.50. Before that 2nd in a small field at this track on December 22 over 1673m, on a wet track; 5 len behind Shamu with 57kg at $5. Capable of more – worth another chance.

The start before that second last of 7 at this track on December 19 over 1207m, 12 len behind Hartful Hope with 56kg at $18.30. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Resumes after a break of ten weeks and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation second last in a small field at this track December 11 over 1207m, 8 len behind Tanya Showers carrying 56kg at $14.30. Previously first up; third in a small field at Thistledown September 23 over 1609m, 4.5 len behind Liam's Lass with 56kg at $3. A big run will not surprise.
