Race 7: # 3 Mountain Trail makes his second start today and should move forward off of his last. He lacked late punch over the Hoosier oval last time and may enjoy the poly at Turfway better.

Presque Isle Downs
Race 6: # 10 Angus Kahn is one for one over this oval and should return to his winning ways today. He didn't handle the dirt too well last out but seems to be a better runner on all-weather ovals.
