Turfway Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
MAY MAY STRONG (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1207m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DON'T SAY IT (9) finished sixth last time out over 1106m on turf at Fairgrounds, beaten 4 lengths. First try on synthetic today. Reunites with Luan Machado who has a win when partnering. Sure to run well. FLAME DANCER (8) has switched yards since finishing fourth two months ago over 1207m at this track. Can make her presence felt. SPEIGHTER WOMAN (1) turned in a better run last start, beaten 7 lengths into fifth over 1308m at this track. Finds a nice race and can bounce back.

Second-up. First-up after three months scored a big 8 len win at Mahoning Valley January 14 over 1207m defeating Agua Fresca carrying 54.5kg at $1.70. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by 0.8 len at Hawthorne August 17 over 1006m defeating Zee carrying 54kg at $1.70. Should progress from that first-up run.

Second run back. First-up after three months 3rd of 8 at this track on January 2 over 1207m, 6 len behind Bilyana with 54.5kg at $10.19. Previously second-up 3rd of 7 at Keeneland on April 17 over 1207m, 3 len behind Mila Rose carrying 53.5kg at $14.36. Fitter but others appeal more.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 62 day let-up. Last start 4th of 9 at this track on December 4 over 1207m, 1.3 len behind Elle's Dancer with 53.5kg at $5.77. The run before that ran on from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Laurel on October 26 over 1207m, 1.3 len behind Souper Amusing with 54.5kg at $2.30. Not a bad effort last time and is open to improvement.
