Mahoning Valley Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming
KIDDIE COCKTAIL (1) finished 15 lengths back in ninth over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time out after a gutsy win the start prior. Terrific chance to return to the winners' list. BEACHGLASS (10) finished fifth two runs back at Belterra Park (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 0.3 lengths over 1106m at Belterra Park (Dirt) when she came with a powerful finish. Looks well placed so expect another big run. CAT'S CRADLE (4) was well in commission last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when fifth, beaten 4 lengths. Has a solid record at this circuit. Sure to be competitive. INSTANT WINNER (2) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 1.75 lengths to spare over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Solid claims.

Last start ran last of 9 at this track on October 21 over 1207m, 15 len behind Jilly Runs Deep carrying 56kg at $11.40. Before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a 0.3 len at Thistledown on September 24 over 1207m defeating Golden Haul carrying 52kg at $4.40. Draws the inside and should take beating.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming ran last in a small field at Thistledown on October 8 over 1207m, 11 len behind Rollin Freedom carrying 54kg at $15.60. Last start 3rd in a small field at this track on October 21 over 1609m, 3 len behind I Belong First with 56kg at $15. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 7 at Thistledown on October 6 over 1106m, 1.5 len behind Ron Dah Lou carrying 54.5kg at $3.80. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.

Comes off a 40 day let-up. At the latest run scored a big 6 len win at Thistledown on September 30 over 1207m defeating Greek Boutique with 53.5kg at $1.70. Before that sat on the pace when 2nd of 7 at Thistledown on September 14 over 1106m, 3.5 len behind Seyval Blanc carrying 53.5kg at $4.60. Prefer to watch at this stage.
