Mahoning Valley Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Allowance

OLLIE'S FOLLY (4) raced below his best last time when sixth over 1710m at Thistledown (Dirt), beaten 20 lengths. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to be prominent. SPIRIT OF AKRON (5) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 5 lengths over 1106m at Thistledown (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three starts. Big chance once again. KINDERHOOK (2) is progressing well this preparation. Opened with a sixth at Thistledown (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by 1.3 lengths as favourite last time out after being in the firing line on the bend over 1207m at Thistledown (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. HIDDEN RANSOM (7) finished fifth two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1207m at Thistledown, beaten only 1.3 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
