Mahoning Valley Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming

MISS SHADY (2) is ready to break through after collecting her 5th minor placing in a row last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt) after being in contention all the way. Drawn for a good trail just off the pace. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. VITAEMI (1) lines up on the back of a 11 length fourth over 1106m at this track. Best form puts her right in this. NEEDED (4) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when fourth over 1207m at Mountaineer Park (Dirt). Worth noting Angel I Diaz goes aboard. Beautifully placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. OPULENT WAYS (5) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks and is having her first outing under new trainer Mikhail Carmichael. Finished fifth at Thistledown (Dirt) over 1106m at the opening run last time in work.
