Mountaineer Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Special Weight
SPERRY CHALET (5) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Turf) over 1609m after being prominent from the outset. Has a high cruising speed. Going up a level this time but she deserves plenty of thought. COMPLETELY ELEGANT (1) has not been sighted since she finished tenth over 1710m at Turfway Park on January 15. Sure to prove tough to beat. ELEKTRA KING (10) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when sixth, beaten 7 lengths, over 1609m at this track (Turf). Taking on a better line-up this time but she is up to the challenge. PIGEON CAY (3) has hit the frame at both runs this time in, both on dirt, resuming with a minor at this track then finishing third at Mountaineer Park over 1207m a week ago. Looks set for another bold showing back on turf.
