Mahoning Valley Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

FLORIDA GATOR (3) made it five minor placings in a row last start when second over 1106m at this track (Dirt) after being in contention all the way. Has good early pace. Finds a suitable race and can build on solid recent efforts. EXCHANGE DAY (6) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1106m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. VERSATILE (5) finished fourth last time out over 1207m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Capable of playing a big role. MSHINDI (4) produced another moderate effort last start when 10 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1106m at this track. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
