    Race Analysis

    LITTLE SHANCE (3) recorded a strong maiden win over 6f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) last time, getting there by 7 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he can go on with it. HIDDEN RANSOM (7) comes here off a break of six months. Scored over 6f at this track to launch the last campaign. Should be hard to stop. KICKSTART (1) had a bit on his rivals when resuming last time out, scoring an impressive 2 lengths maiden win over 6f at Mahoning Valley (Dirt). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Becerra Fernando Salazar was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the ride. This is tougher but he is capable of another big run. BIGPICLITTLEPIC (4) has been racing consistently including a last start third over 1m at Mahoning Valley, beaten 2.25 lengths. Nicely placed to play a big role.
