Mountaineer Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
SNEAKY SNEAKY (8) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track (Turf) over 1006m after being in contention all the way. Awkwardly drawn and might need a little luck early. Tackling a more suitable race so he is ready to find the winners' list. STEPNOSKI (1) reunites with B Whitacre after scoring with ease over 1207m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt) last time. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will play a major role. HOTLINE BLINK (3) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 5 lengths into fourth over 1006m at this track. Will enjoy a drop in class so he can play a big role. CASCABEL (9) returns from a layoff of seven months. Scored over 1106m at Turf Paradise to launch the last campaign. Makes plenty of appeal.
