Mahoning Valley Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming

MARMARA (3) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs including a third most recently over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when beaten 1.75 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. Will prove tough to beat. STAR ELLA (1) finished out of the money two starts back then she settled well back and was beaten 12 lengths when eighth in a 1207m contest at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. The engagement of Luis Raul Rivera is a positive move. Has the ability to produce a better result. FAIR TRADE (5) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just two times from 20 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 905m at Charles Town, beaten 12 lengths. Finds a more suitable contest and can take this out. PEARL MAGIC (4) scored two back at this track (Dirt) but was below her best last time when sixth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Returns from a 30-day let-up. At the latest run 6th of 10 at this track on February 16 over 1207m, 13 len behind Gamble On Love with 57kg at $3.70. The race before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.0 len at this track January 22 over 1609m defeating Save The Date carrying 56kg at $2. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.
