Race 2 at Mahoning Valley, April 15th Snow/Rain Mix High Of 48̊
$24K Allowance for F&M 3yo+ going 6f
The Skinny:
Yes, 2-Heavenhasmynikki has the strongest speed ratings. Yes, her works have been steady and yes she has fared outstandingly in graded stakes races. However, there is one glaring stat that makes this kid pause -- her trainer has an abysmal record in layoffs – 7%. Furthermore, her jockey has just two wins in the past thirty days, she’s cutting way back in distance and there are two runners in this race that are a good price and will not leave you with a visceral belly drop after you’ve put your hard earned bank on a 1-5 shot.
5-Ryoan (12/1) jockey Erik Barbaran returns to the irons on this mare and his last time he rode her, they crushed the others with a 95/91 speed rating while pulling away almost as fast as my ex-wife’s attorney did with my money.
4-Dylan Did It (8/1) oh the times they are a changin’ for this lady as there’s been music in her barn at night and revolution in the air. Last out, this girl moved fast, unlike a rolling stone, down the stretch in :25.50. So, look for this Dylan to be knock knock knockin’ on heavens’ door.
Mahoning Valley Race 2 Bets:
4 - $10/w $20/p
$2 Exacta 4-5-2
$1 Trifecta Box 4-5-2
Mahoning Valley Race 3
$22K MSW Staties for F&M 3yo+ going 5.5f
The Skinny:
Four first time starters out of a field of eight; preference goes to the experienced racers.
4-Kingdom Gift (6/1) came off a three month layoff to lead the pack and tire in the stretch, hanging in there to get second. Her second off a layoff and class drop makes the choice play here. Trainer Robert Gorham cruising along at 24% wins in the past thirty days and jockey TD Houghton hitting 19%. Kingdom’s most attractive detail is she has not raced against state breds’ only. All of her four outings (msw) have been against open company.
1-Elegant de Domingo (2-1) first time starter for trainer Billy Hardin (33%) and first time starters are not his long suit. However, he gets Luis Quinonez (24%) in the irons and is saddling this filly who has had several bullet works.
8-Honey Shack (20/1) third race off a layoff and expecting improvement, this gal has the speed, she now needs to put it together. Jockey Sonny Leon earning a 20% win rate of late and trainer getting 16% with this jockey
