Mountaineer Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
PRINCESS AZARA (4) is a nine-start maiden who was in the placings at her last two starts, finishing third at the latest appearance over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Going well enough to test this field. GORDA (6) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1006m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. SILVER WISHES (7) resumes from a spell of eight months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 905m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. IMPOSTORA (1) settled well back on debut last start and failed to threaten when eighth over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). Expected to improve sharply and worth including this line-up.
