Mahoning Valley Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance
HOOF AND BOOTS (5) Won narrowly last start here. Finishes off strongly. Producing consistent results this campaign. In the mix. R CANDY (6) Charged home to win last time Hollywood Casino At Charles Town Races and stepping up in distance. Racing for a new trainer. Right in this. HONOR AND OBAY (2) Started off strong but faded towards the end when 2nd beaten by 8L last time here and has a good draw. Alexander Chavez rates highly. Should go close. STRIKING LADY (4) Folded up in the straight when 6th last time at the track. Can make a comeback but matched against a stronger field. Should come to hand quickly. Among the major players.

Started at $7.50 and didn't attack the line when 5th last start at the track but gets the perfect alley. Dropping in distance. Competing at a higher level of competition. Should not be left out of your thoughts.

Set a strong tempo before weakening to place 2nd last time here and will try to take advantage of the gate. Up in grade. One for the value hunters.

At $14.00 chased well when 5th last time at Tampa Bay Downs and matched against a less competitive field. Rocco Bowen and Timothy E Hamm are an imposing duo. Marginal chance.

Was $5.50 and weakened under pressure when 6th last time around here. Can make a comeback but rising in class. Should be going forward early. Genuine claims.
