Presque Isle Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Special Weight
BESTBALL (3) Ran 3rd last time at this track. Gets a chance to win. MUSKET MAGIC (2) Gave away some ground when 4th last start at this venue. Should bounce back and can find a nice position from the draw. Will be positive in the run early. Must respect. MINOTAUR (5) Struggled when 4th last run here. Danny Gargan stable are in good form of late. Will be trying to topple them late. Goes very close. MR BOBO (1) Improved when 5th last run at Churchill Downs and gets a favourable gate. Can go through the gears. Could be a value selection.

Was $7.50 and tailed off to finish 4th last start here. Should bounce back and has a positive barrier. Should jump out and bowl along. Racing over more ground. Good chance at a nice price.

Competitive effort when 3rd last time around here. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Jumped at $7.00 and showed some merit late when 4th last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis. First race for a new trainer. Antonio A Gallardo is a smart booking. Respect the betting.
