Presque Isle Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming
THEGREATESTISLOVE (5) Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last time at this track and was a debutant last start. Antonio A Gallardo is a key engagement. Serious contender. CHEF'S KISS (1) Managed to run 3rd last start at this venue and drawn the rails. Israel O Rodriguez and Juan Miguel Arriagada are highly regarded when paired. Up against tougher competition. Looks a winning hope. ETERNAL CITY (4) Finished amongst the placegetters when 3rd last start around here but up against a higher level of opposition. Will be motoring home late. Could be a value selection. WHAT'S YOUR NAME (6) Ran on into 4th last run at the track and up against weaker rivals. Not out of this.

Showed a good turn of foot when 3rd last start at the track and has drawn to do little work. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

At $28.00 tailed off to finish 6th last time at Churchill Downs but has a good draw. Back to a shorter trip. Facing stiffer opposition. May find these too slick.

Folded up in the straight when 9th last time at the track but matched against a less competitive field. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Prefer in something easier.

Finished with intent when 3rd beaten by close to 9L last start at this venue but facing a stronger class. Always seems to find the line well. Strong prospects in this race.

Odds of $14.00 and hit the line well when 4th last run at the track and competing in an easier class. Looks like solid value.
