Mountaineer Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Claiming
BLEDSOE (7) finished second when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track. Has sound form here including a win and five minor placings from 11 starts. Key runner. CLASSIC KING (4) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Backmarker who gets home hard. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. MEAN TWEETS (6) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when he made late ground, beaten 1.75 lengths. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he will be hard to beat. EXCHANGE DAY (8) was expected to do more last start when out of the placings over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 6 lengths. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
