Parx Racing Race 9 - 6 1/2F Stakes
TOUGH GUY TONY (3) is a promising type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Already a three time winner and scored two back in stakes class at Penn National (Dirt) before placing last time over 1408m at Listed level at this track (Dirt). Looks suited and expected to go close on best form. PONDER AND DREAM (2) was a dominant winner last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt), getting home by 2.25 lengths. Is yet to miss the frame from four starts this campaign, including a win. Expected to be in the finish. BOOTLEG RUNNER (6) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track (Dirt) over 1308m. Francisco Martinez sticks. Has winning claims on best figures. LIVE STREAM (4) is back at the races for the first time since November 26. Scored over 1308m at Presque Isle Downs to launch the last campaign. Makes plenty of appeal.
