RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: IM EDDIE (5) is a smart trotter by Volstead. He has been chasing home talented runners throughout his career and will appreciate this company. He will need luck but can make his own. LEANNE LEEANN (10) at her best is a smart trotter and has the clear best sectional times in this field. She may be in the twilight of her career but is still racing well and will need to make her own luck. EL BRAVO (8) is a lightly raced trotter who is third up and has plenty of ability. He has won two of nine but galloped in five starts, so he must get his gait right. RAMBO SUFFARELL (7) has had two career starts for a win and a seventh, galloping in both. Outside of that he has brilliant trial form. He needs to trot throughout but has ability. BACK: IM EDDIE (5) – 2 units (win)
