TOUGH CAT (3) Resumes after a 51 week break. Picked up late to win last run at Belterra Park but competing at a higher level of competition. Coming to a new trainer. Has plenty of claims. TYSON'S LIL' STAR (6) Big effort to place 2nd last time at this track but stepping up to a higher level. Shows good early pace. Been in the money reqularly this campaign. One of the major players. JAC'S DOE MAKER (1) Back after a 35 week break. Came in 2nd last run at Mahoning Valley and drawn well. Has a great burst of speed late. Solid career start. Rising in grade. Honest enough customer who is strongly placed. KETTLE COALMINE (5) Underperformed when 4th last start around here and up against stronger rivals. Should get going late. In a purple patch of form since coming back from a break. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive.

Resuming after a spell of 35 weeks. Looked good when 2nd last run at Mahoning Valley and drawn the rails. Always seems to find the line well. Has every chance.

Fresh from a break of 51 weeks. Finished with purpose when winning last run at Belterra Park but back in trip. First appearance for a new trainer. Facing formidable competition. Winning chance.

At $14.00 just average when 4th last start at this venue and up against a higher level of opposition. Very competitive this preparation. Will be motoring home late. Can measure up against these.

Ran a solid race on the speed before weakening to finish 2nd beaten by 3/4L last time here but racing in stronger company. Should muster plenty of early toe. Will attract plenty of interest.
