Parx Racing Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
PREACHA MEYERS (6) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1673m at this track (Dirt), getting home by 0.3 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. RED ZONE RUNNER (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when fourth in a 1609m contest at Laurel Turf a month ago. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. DREAMBUILDER (5) is racing well, scoring two back at this track (Dirt) before finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1609m in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Pascacio Lopez who has two wins when partnering stays on. Has winning claims on best figures. IN SPADES (8) won at this track (Dirt) two starts ago but was below his best at a more recent appearance, finishing fifth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with top-three prospects.

Chasing a hat-trick. Most recently won by a 0.3 len at this track on October 6 over 1673m defeating Worcester with 55.5kg at $4.60. The start before that won by 1.0 len at Colonial Downs on September 6 over 1710m defeating Pascaline with 55.5kg at $5.60. Hard to beat if he brings his A-game.

Recent form sound. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at Delaware Park on October 10 over 1673m, nose behind Omaha Omaha with 55.5kg at $1.80. The race before that 3rd of 7 at Delaware Park on September 18 over 1673m, 0.8 len behind Embrace My Uncle carrying 56kg at $2.30. Worth plenty of thought.
