Mahoning Valley Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Claiming
PRINCESS AZARA (6) Weakened under pressure when 5th last run at this track. Should improve from the last run but down in distance. Should muster plenty of early speed. Will take some beating today. HERO QUEEN (5) Good performance to run into 3rd last time here. Shows good closing speed. Showing great form since resuming from a break. Can go on with it. SHAUNNASAPRILFOOL (2) Lacklustre showing when 6th last run Parx At Philadelphia but will try to take advantage of the stall. Change in trainer. Has a nice turn of foot. Big danger. FLASH FREEZE (4) Fresh after spell of 38 weeks. Weakened to finish 7th last start at Presque Isle Downs but having second race start. Should race on the speed. Place hopes not out of reach.

Jumped at $43.00 and well beaten when 7th last time around here but has minimal work to do from the stall. Much prefer the look of others in this race.

Was $13.00 and underperformed when 6th last run Parx At Philadelphia but gets a favourable draw. First start for a new trainer. Displays very good closing speed. In the mix against these.

Started at $23.00 and gave away some ground when 6th last run at this track. Have to respect the recent stable form. Has not placed in 7 attempts this campaign. Will be a difficult assignment.

Back after a 38 week break. At $9.50 lost ground in the run home when 7th last start at Presque Isle Downs but having second career run. Prefer a race with softer competition.

Jumped at $8.00 and tailed off to finish 5th last run at the track. Should improve from the last run but back to a shorter distance. Will go close.
