Mahoning Valley Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming

ERNIE'S MARTINI (4) was impressive last time at this track (Dirt), scoring by 3 lengths over this trip. Has a solid record at this circuit. Sure to go well. GAME BOY BENNY (6) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten only half a length after being in contention on the corner. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. DON'T CROSS JACK (7) improved sharply on his seventh two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win over 1207m at this track (Dirt) two weeks ago, getting home by half a length after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. ICE BLAST (2) returns from a layoff of five months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1207m at Thistledown. Among the better hopes.

Form hard to fault. Most recently favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 3 len at this track March 10 over 1207m defeating Letmeknowbeforeugo carrying 57kg at $1.90. The run before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 7 at this track on February 16 over 1673m, 7 len behind Smash with 56kg at $10.90. Sure to go well again.
