Scioto Downs Race 10

Race 10

Prize Money: $35,920

WRONG SOUNDS RIGHT (1) is an outstanding two-year-old colt who has five wins from seven career runs. Added to his credentials last start when he scored by 3 metres over 1609m at Mohawk Park. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Finds a suitable assignment and will be a major force once more. GIO'S HOPE (3) has raced seven times for an impressive five wins in a remarkable career to date. Added to his credentials last start when he scored by 0.8 metres over 1609m at Vernon Downs. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. This is a nice drop in class so he is sure to prove tough to beat again. YANKEE BOSS (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a neck at The Red Mile over 1609m. JIMDOUGIE ARMITAGE (7) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when second at The Red Mile over 1609m.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 3 m as favourite at Mohawk Park (1:51.10) beating Access Now in 2yo OPEN on September 26 at $1.40 at the bell was leading. Two runs back won by 10 m as favourite (Fr4) at Meadowlands (1:51.40) beating Easy Down Blonde in NJCLASSICF-R1 on September 11 at $1.70. Sure to play a major role.

Last start 2nd (Fr10) over 1609m at The Red Mile, beaten 4 m by Whateverittakes As (1:53.00) in KYSS-R1 on September 20 at $8.53. Two runs back won by a 0.6 m (Fr2) at The Red Mile (1:51.40) beating Command Center in KYSS on September 2 at $15.17. Happy enough to avoid.

Two-year-old colt is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Vernon Downs both over 1609m. Last start won by a 0.8 m (Fr8) at Vernon Downs (1:53.10) beating Archon in BIGAPPLE-F-R1 on October 9 at $3.11. No reason he cannot chalk-up the hat-trick.

Last start good run when 2nd (Fr6) over 1609m at The Red Mile, beaten 0.9 m by Presidente (1:52.00) in BLUEGRASS on October 1 at $4.61. Two runs back won by a 0.6 m as favourite (Fr3) at Pocono Downs (1:55.00) beating Big Time Trot in PASS FINAL-R1 on September 7 at $1.40. One of the chances based on recent efforts.
