Turfway Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Claiming
SHEZ TWISTED (5) Tailed off to finish 9th last start at this track. Looking for an improved run but down in distance. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Up to these. NOULIKEABOOK (3) Made some ground late when 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last run at the track and returns to a rise in trip. First start for a new trainer. A win wouldn't surprise. BELLE OF LIBERTY (7) Finished 6th last start at Fair Grounds. Happy to overlook that run. Has early speed and positions nicely. Will give a big sight. HOPE RISING (6) Solid run on the pace before weakening to finish 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last time at this track. Can go through the gears. Solid place bet prospects.

Started at $28.00 and lost ground in the run home when 9th last time here but gets the perfect alley. Dropping in distance. Hard to take.

Didn't threaten when 11th last time at the track but has a positive gate. Always seems to find the line well. Back in trip. Place and exotics candidate.

Was $23.00 and felt the pinch when 4th last start here. Likely to get back. Seems very unlikely.

Jumped at $6.50 and gave away some ground when 9th last start around here. Looking for an improved run but will be down in distance. Chance and can measure up.

Jumped at $8.50 and ran 6th last start at Fair Grounds. Happy to overlook that run. Should muster plenty of early toe. Solid claims.
