Mahoning Valley Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Claiming
DAREDEVIL DOUG (3) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1207m at Fairgrounds (Dirt) after being prominent from the outset. Drawn for a good trail just off the pace. Looks well placed this line-up so expect another big run. FAST TALKIN MAN (5) met with solid support when resuming last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt) when second, beaten 3 lengths. Can bounce back. PIVOT TO THE POWER (8) was in contention on the bend and finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1710m at Turfway Park (Synthetic), beaten 3 lengths. Has the talent to take this out. WAMPANOAG CHIEF (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at Parx, beaten 10 lengths into sixth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
