Presque Isle Downs Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming

DEL RAYO (1) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 3 lengths away in third over 1673m at this track (Synthetic). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CITY LEADER (2) is a consistent performer with three minor placings from three starts this prep. Continued the trend last start when third over 1673m at this track (Synthetic). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. CRAFTY KING (3) has switched yards since finishing fifth two months ago over 1609m at Mountaineer Park Turf. Well-placed and is among the chances. MAJOR THOMAS (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1673m at this track, beaten 5 lengths into fifth. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.

The race before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at this track on July 22 over 1673m, 2.5 len behind Frosty The Soldier carrying 56.5kg at $5.20. Can improve again. Top chance.

Comes off a 58 day let-up. Last start ran second last in a small field at Mountaineer Park Turf on June 14 over 1609m, 33 len behind Defiant Giant carrying 54.5kg at $43.30. Before that got back early 6th of 9 at Hawthorne Turf on May 14 over 1609m, 11 len behind Another Mystery carrying 56kg at $35.10. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.
