Mahoning Valley Race 7

Claiming

Stake: $52,891

IT'S OFFICIAL (3) Ran on strongly to win last time at this venue and stepping back up in distance. Yan Aviles has multiple wins aboard. Winnable race. NEED TO KNOW BASIS (1) First run back after spell. Peaked on the run when 3rd beaten by nearly 10L last start here and drawn well. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Can give this a shake. HIDDEN ACCESS (6) First up from a break of 17 weeks and was fighting out the finish when winning first up last preparation around here. Must be considered. MISTER MOBIL (2) On a short turnaround. Hit the line well when 4th last start at the track and can find a nice position from the draw. Will be hitting the line strongly. Could be a value selection.
