Penn National Race 8

Claiming

Stake: $18,589

ILLUSION OF HOPE (6) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 1106m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Well placed to feature again. MY BOSS LADY (3) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just five wins from 52 starts. Was again denied last start when she found one better over 1106m at this track. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race. BONITA LASSIE (5) improved last start to finish second over 1207m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. FOREST MAIDEN (4) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when seventh over 1308m at Parx (Dirt). Has the ability to figure prominently. Something for the Multiples: BETCHA BOOTS BABE (2)
