Mahoning Valley Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Allowance
COASTLAND (7) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks and comes here off the back of five straight wins. Back to the scene of the last success so hard to knock. ROLL ON BIG O (3) won at this track and distance at his last outing three-and-a-half months ago, the only appearance of that campaign. L A Batista who has three wins when partnering stays on. Best form puts him right in this. LUST FOR LIFE (2) has switched yards since finishing third two weeks ago over 1006m at this track. Worth plenty of thought. PAINT THE TOWN (1) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when eighth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time. Something for the Multiples: THEDAYOFTHEGREY (6)

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a nose at this track November 13 over 1207m defeating Eagle Nest carrying 56kg at $16.10. First up last campaign ran last in a small field at Thistledown on September 4 over 1609m, 25 len behind Ed's Reward carrying 54kg at $5.10. Should be right in the finish.

Returns from a 39-day let-up. At the latest run 2nd in a small field at this track on January 12 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Henry Mac carrying 56kg at $7.70. The run before that 2nd in a small field at this track on December 20 over 1673m, in the wet; nose behind Relish The Ride carrying 56kg at $3.50. Finds a few better today. Can't recommend.
