Penn National Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Optional Claiming
SOUPER VINNIE (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when one length away in second over 1207m at Penn National (Dirt) when he was always up in the leading division. Looks well placed so expect another big run. COACH KRIV (6) continues to race well with a win two back at Penn National (Dirt) before finishing half a length away in second last time over 1710m at Penn National (Dirt). Should camp just off the leaders. Will prove tough to beat. BILLY WHITE SHOES (8) turned in a modest performance when eighth last time out over 1609m at Turfway Park, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a win at Turfway Park at the previous outing. Has the talent to take this out. THICK AS THIEVES (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at Penn National, beaten 10 lengths. Fitter so watch for a better performance.
