Enhance Your Mind favorite for feature

DOVER, Del. — Enhance Your Mind brings a two-race win streak into the $15,500 Mares Handicap pace Tuesday harness racing feature race at Dover Downs on Jan. 10. Post time is 4:30 p.m.

Owner-trainer Bryan Truitt's Enhance Your Mind, winner of four of her last six races including two third place finishers is the one to beat. Last start, the five-year-old started from post 8 and immediately broke stride. Driver Vic Kirby got her back on stride but was last. Kirby rallied Enhance Your Mind on the backstretch and she took off following Velocity Lana who briefly raced into the lead as the field turned for home. Enhance Your Mind streaked down the lane to win by a neck in 1:53. L&L Stables' Velocity Lana, who will be driven by Yannick Gingras this week finished second with B Stern piloted by Montrell Teague for Leigh Raymer, Moss and the Solomons, was third.

CC Racing's Tyra with Tony Morgan, raced well in her first start in month, and should be a factor this week. Tim Tetrick's Arts Jem with Ross Wolfenden, is another contender. Brian Malone's Love To Roll drew the rail with George Dennis. Lee Louthan's homebred Spin Vision with Russ Foster is alongside. Corey Callahan will drive Nat A Virgin from post 9 in the second tier for J&T Silva and Robert Cooper stables while On Your Six, owned by David Banks and Layfield Horses, must come from the outside guided by Allan Davis.

There is a strong supporting card on the Wednesday, all female program.
