Mountaineer Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance Optional Claiming
MIDNIGHT SHOW (4) has scored at his last four starts, most recently by 2.25 lengths over 1006m at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from three outings. Sure to go well again. CATCH THE HUMOR (1) was thereabouts last time out when second in Listed grade at Charles Town (Dirt) over 1408m, beaten a nose. Cherry-ripe now. Big chance coming back in trip. BEACH COLT (10) last appeared a week-and-a-half ago over 1207m at Delaware Park when he finished second. This is his first run for the Amador Merei Sanchez stable. Worth plenty of thought. TRIGGER POINT (8) is back from a spell. Closed last prep in sparkling form with four consecutive wins, the latest over 1207m at this track on May 24. Has a high cruising speed. One of the better hopes.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation to post a big 8 len win. This track April 26 over 1207m defeating Gone Boy with 54.5kg at $1.60. When resuming last campaign second in a small field at this track September 30 over 1106m, 1.0 len behind Jamming Cameron carrying 56kg at $4.90. This looks too tough.

Recent form sound. Last start 2nd in a small field at Delaware Park on July 29 over 1207m, 4 len behind Shane's Wonder with 55kg at $5. The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 7 at Gulfstream Park in LR on July 4 over 1207m, 6 len behind Viking with 56kg at $30.60. Nice effort last time. Can go on with the job now.
