Presque Isle Downs Race 7 - Race 7 - Starter Optional Claiming

CODE NAME (3) has been freshened up since finishing seventh on April 18 over 1710m at Tampa Bay Downs Turf (Turf). Forgive the last run; worth following up. SIR MAXIMUS (2) was an impressive winner last time over 1609m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt), leading throughout and putting 7 lengths on his rivals. L Negron who has scored on him four times retains the mount. Leading contender. STARSHIP EMPIRE (4) returns from a layoff of four months. Scored over 1673m at this track to launch the last campaign. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. UNCLE TRULY (5) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing fifth last start over 1710m at Tampa Bay Downs Turf (Turf) six-and-a-half weeks ago. Should park just off the speed. Can feature in the finish.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resumes off a 52 day letup. Resuming ran on from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Turfway Park on March 14 over 1609m, 0.6 len behind J P Hellish carrying 55kg at $6.73. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 len at Turfway Park March 28 over 1710m defeating Alpha Omega carrying 55kg at $4.15. This looks too tough.
