Mahoning Valley Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

HE'S MY BOY (6) was in contention on the turn and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1609m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BUCKEYE MIKE (7) missed the frame last time when fourth at this track. Prior to that had been in the money on three consecutive occasions. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will prove tough to beat. COUPLE BEERS DEEP (8) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when tenth over 1207m at this track, beaten 17 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can rediscover winning form. TAP THE WIND (3) hasn't been far away since a maiden win five runs back, the latest effort a second over 1207m at this track (Dirt) on October 21. Should camp just off the leaders. Solid claims on best form.
