Laurel Park Race 6

Allowance Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $74,018

SWEET SODDY J (7) ran seventh at his latest appearance over 1207m at Presque Isle Downs, clocking in 5.5 lengths from the winner. Looks to have an edge on most of these. SQUINTS (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 10 lengths away in second over 1207m at Delaware Park (Dirt) when he was always up in the leading division. Steps up a level but he is capable of running a bold race. PRADO ROAD (5) did little and finished 8 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1207m at Pimlico last start after being in contention on the corner, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Sheldon Russell gets the best out of this three-year-old gelding. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. IRISH HERO (4) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when second over 1106m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. In the mix.

Form hard to fault. Last start 2nd of 7 at this track on June 8 over 1106m, 4 len behind Celtic Contender carrying 56kg at $8.60. The run before that won by 4 len at Pimlico May 17 over 1207m defeating Without Pretence carrying 54kg at $4.90. Going well. Leading chance.

Second run back. First-up after two months second last of 9 at Penn National in the G3 Penn Mile Stakes on May 31 over 1609m, 16 len behind First World War with 54kg at $83.90. Previously second-up won by a 0.3 len at Penn National November 24 over 1207m defeating Lawyer John with 55kg at $2.20. Unlikely to threaten.
