Turfway Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CELTIC CHARM (4) is back at the races for the first time since December 10. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1811m at Churchill Downs Turf. Capable of playing a major role. STRONG DESTINY (2) went fast early and went on to score by 8 lengths when resuming last time out over 2012m at this track (Synthetic). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. J N J HEARTANDSOUL (5) returned from a break last start with a moderate ninth over 1609m at this track (Synthetic) after giving away a big start. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. OAK ALLEY (3) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 4 lengths into fourth over 1609m at this track. Nicely placed to find some form. Something for the Multiples: STRIFE (1)
