Presque Isle Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Optional Claiming

DIAMOND DUST (1) got home by half a length last time out over 1207m at this track (Synthetic). Has a solid record at this course and distance, including seven wins. Israel O Rodriguez who has two wins when partnering stays on. Expecting a bold showing. WILLIE BIRD (4) has three wins and two minor placings from five runs this preparation. Found one better last start at this track (Synthetic) over 1207m after being prominent upon straightening. In the right race and is one of the big hopes. FIVEFIVE SIX CHAMP (5) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1106m at Mountaineer Park. Looks a strong top-three prospect. ROCKET DRAGON (2) was beaten 9 lengths into fourth over 1207m at this track at his latest appearance. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
