Mahoning Valley Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
KUKUK (3) Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd beaten by 4 1/4L last time at this venue. Should muster plenty of early toe. Hard to dismiss. MOORE GOLD (4) Faded to finish 6th last start at Belterra Park. Should improve here. Should be going forward early. Looking sharp on the track this preparation. Won't be far away. DIVINENESS (1) Missed by a narrow margin last start at Presque Isle Downs and drawn well. Change in trainer. Must respect. HALLEY'S COMET (6) Lost ground in the run home when 5th last time at this track. May see an upturn in form. Won't be far away during the run. Well placed and has solid claims.

Competed in a tight contest last start at Presque Isle Downs and has a nice advantage with a good draw. First appearance for a new trainer. Could win this.

Racing fresh today after a break. At $6.00 lacked competitiveness when 4th last time at Belterra Park but having second career run. Gets a favourable draw. Will struggle against these.

Ran home into 2nd beaten by 4 1/4L last time here. Has plenty of early speed. Been in the money 3 from 3 attempts this campaign. Major player who should go very close.

Was $9.50 and didn't find the line when 6th last start at Belterra Park. Should improve here. Should jump out and bowl along. Has a credible chance.

Odds of $3.40 and couldn't maintain the pace when 5th last time around here. May see an upturn in form. Should muster plenty of early speed. Winning chance at nice odds.
