Parx Racing Race 1 - Race 1 - Starter Optional Claiming
TROTSKY (6) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time out over 1408m at this track (Dirt), finishing third and beaten 2.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is one of the main contenders. ZEUS' WAR (1) has been freshened up since a disappointing sixth over 1207m at Del Mar (Dirt) seven-and-a-half weeks ago. Better than the last run suggests. VANCOUGAR (7) has switched yards since scoring by 11 lengths at Del Mar over 1207m on August 15. Comes here with definite top-three claims. KING DEIVYS (3) got the prize two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when fourth over 1408m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 29-day let-up. Most recently 4th in a small field at this track on September 14 over 1408m, 7 len behind Wicked Melody with 56.5kg at $7.50. The run before that scored a big 4.5 len win at this track on August 31 over 1308m defeating Possum with 55.5kg at $3.80. Drawn to advantage and looks a solid chance.

Most recently ran second last of 12 at this track on September 19 over 1408m, 13 len behind Coach Bennett carrying 55kg at $103.70. The start before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.5 len at this track on August 18 over 1408m defeating King Deivys with 55.5kg at $16.20. Likely to run around at long odds and deservedly so.
