Mountaineer Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming

MITICO (10) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on August 17, finishing tenth and beaten 14 lengths over 1207m at Del Mar (Dirt). Lines up today for the first time for trainer J P Silva. Expect him to play a major role. LIMIT UP (2) started at $6.60 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths at Tampa Bay Downs (Dirt) over 1207m. Has the class to take care of this field. LETMEKNOWBEFOREUGO (9) improved last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1207m at Mahoning Valley after being prominent at the bend. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is a major player. JOE PHILLIPS (3) was in contention on the turn and finished second last time over 1106m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 5 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Capable of another strong performance.
