Eldorado Scioto Downs will host the second leg of the Buckeye Stallion Series two-year-old pacers Thursday, July 23.
One hundred and one entries have resulted in six divisions for colts and five divisions for fillies. Each division will carry a purse of $17,500.
The opening leg was held at MGM Northfield Park on July 13. Ten of the 13 winners will return to action tonight. The previous winners are led by Brighter Days (by Woodstock) and Twig (Mr Apples), who are both undefeated this season in two lifetime starts. Illini Duke (Well Said) and Imagine It (If I Can Dream) have each won three of four starts this year. The other three winners, Hes A Dickens (Well Said), KB Mac (McArdle) and Weekend Pass (Big Bad John), will battle in the seventh race.
On the filly side of the ledger, only three of six opening-leg winners return for leg two. Undefeated Apple Soozy (Mr Apples) and Smothastenesewisky (Nob Hill High) are back along with Margin Of Error (Racing Hill).
First-race post time is at 6:15 p.m.
