Our Winter Winner-Land promotion continues Tuesday with Mahoning Valley in the spotlight. Bet $100 on the card and get a $10 bonus with 1/ST BET and Xpressbet. Monday’s card from Ohio was victimized by Mother Nature, but let’s hope to heat things up on Tuesday.
Mahoning Valley: Race 5
#2 Cool Couple (4-1 morning line odds) should appreciate the subtle difference between 6 furlongs and the 5-1/2 furlong dash trip last time that left him flat-footed and farther back than usual. His form over a fast track moves him up even more if things dry out. Win bet #2. Exacta 2-4 bigger, 4-2 smaller.
Mahoning Valley: Race 8
#4 Finally Friday (10-1 morning line odds) steps up in class off an allowance win and should be close enough to the sprint pace to be a factor even on the cut-back in trip. Trainer Jevon Crumley can’t miss of late, winning with 5 of 11 starters beginning with this gelding’s Nov. 3 win. Those scores included $11 and $44 winners. Win-place bet #4.
