Mahoning Valley Race 5

Maiden Special Weight

Stake: $42,135

BETSY (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 1.3 lengths away in second over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when she was always up in the leading division. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SHEZ TWISTED (2) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second when resuming last start over 1006m at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Drawn to go forward again. Has the ability to take care of this field. ACADEMIC FREEDOM (7) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she settled well back over 1710m at Turfway Park, beaten 19 lengths into 11th. Has the ability to take care of this field. MOTOWN STORY (6) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Should park just off the speed. One of the better hopes.
