Mahoning Valley

PURE GRINDING (1) Managed to come out on top by the slightest of margins last run at Thistledown and stepping back up in distance. Has a nice advantage with a good draw. Strong chance. LIGHTNING SPEED (5) Right up there last start at Belterra Park but facing formidable opponents. Amongst the placegetters at every start this preparation. Among better hopes. ROLLIN IN SPIDERS (9) Improved late to finish 4th last run at Thistledown but taking on stronger rivals. Exhibiting good form this preparation. Have to respect the recent Justin Radosevich form. Goes very close. BUKELE (6) Made some ground late when 3rd last run at Thistledown and up against a less competitive field. Jose A Bracho and Caryn Vecchio command respect as a team. Needs some luck and is an each way suggestion.
