Penn National Race 1

Starter Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $53,655

ELLIE'S BOYFRIEND (1) sat close to the pace last time out but faded to finish seventh, beaten 10 lengths over this journey at Monmouth Park (Dirt). Likely improver. SPOTTED BULL (6) got well back over 1308m at Parx (Dirt) last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 9 lengths away in fourth. Finds a nice race and can turn things around. CAJUN VIBES (3) found one better when resuming last start at this track (Dirt) over this distance after he was in contention on the corner. Has found the frame in all seven starts at this journey, including four wins. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. One of the main contenders. LEONIDS (2) is coming off a last-start fourth, beaten 2 lengths, over 1207m at this track. One of the main contenders.
