Mahoning Valley Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
EXTRADITION (1) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when third at this track (Dirt) over 1609m, beaten 1.4 lengths. Has sound form at this track and distance with a win and three minor placings from six runs. Expected to be in the finish. EKATI'S WAY (4) is in top form, most recently recording a win by half a length over 1609m at this track (Dirt) to make it two on the bounce. Has a strong record here at this journey with two wins from four runs. Sure to run well. EDDIE M (3) got a long way back when 7 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1609m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Has a good record at this course and distance, including three wins. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. KING CURLIN (5) scored two back at this track (Dirt) but was below his best last time when sixth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Well placed to atone.
