Mahoning Valley Race 3

Prize Money: $13,000

ICE BLAST (1) Put the head down when winning last time around here and ideal distance as proven previously. Jockey Santiago Gonzalez and trainer Nestor R Rivera are a strong combination. Fights on bravely so consider. STRIKE APPEAL (8) Below par when 5th last run here but have to respect the form at this trip. Winnable race. HAD RIGHT (3) Kept chasing when 4th last time at this venue. Might take a while to wind up but should be hitting top gear in the straight. Can make a claim. HARD ASTRAY (2) Felt the pinch late when 3rd last start here and has a good draw. Should come to hand quickly. Looks to have a good chance of placing.

Snagged a narrow win last time at this venue and strong form at the distance. Santiago Gonzalez and Nestor R Rivera link well together. Good tough competitor that can be supported.

Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 3rd last start at this venue and drawn nicely. Has plenty of early speed. Hard to see finishing out of the placings.

Unimpressive effort when 6th last time at the track. Prefers to settle towards the tail. This looks a tough assignment.
