Monticello Raceway Race 2

1609M

Prize Money: $6,924

DIVE BAR (1) Did well when 2nd last start at this venue and gets the perfect alley. Has early speed and positions nicely. In fine form since returning from a spell. Can give this a shake. LIFE IN COLOR (3) Failed to threaten last time here. May see an upturn in form and showing improvement in recent outings. Underrated. SHARP RAZOR (2) In the money when 3rd last run at this track. Worth consideration. SAFENSOUND HANOVER (6) Ran 4th last start around here. Looking past the last run. Can go through the gears. Exotics and place chance.
