Turfway Park Race 10 - Race 10 - Maiden Claiming
LONG ACTING (4) is yet to break through after six career starts. Could only manage to finish 12th last time out over 1609m at this track (Synthetic) following a minor placing at Woodbine over 1408m the run prior. Finds a nice race and this might be his day. LIVEHAPPY (1) is yet to break through in 23 runs but wasn't far away last time when second over 1207m at this track (Synthetic) on January 7. Luan Machado stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on three occasions. Sure to play a big role. HALFWAY JOKING (9) is a nine-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 8 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at this track (Synthetic). Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come. SAMDINI (7) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1207m at this track (Synthetic), beaten 6 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Nicely placed to play a role in the finish.
