Fairmount Park Race 6

Allowance Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $27,523

SPECIAL DISPATCH (1) missed the frame two back in tougher company then last time in a more suitable affair scored by half a length over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Looks well placed to feature in the finish. AMERICAN CAUSE (4) was an effortless winner last time over 1673m at Hawthorne (Dirt), scoring by 12 lengths. Has been in sound form this prep with three wins from seven starts. Leading contender. BIGFOOT SIGHTING (6) is a distance specialist who turned things around last start and landed the prize by 0.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend over 1710m at Hawthorne (Dirt). Has his share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. JACK SPRAT (3) is struggling to find the winners' circle but has been around the mark, last start finishing third over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Yet to win at this distance but has recorded three minor placings so he is worth including.
