Monmouth Park Race 5

Sorority S. Stakes

Prize Money: $155,039

SLICK MERLIN (6) ran second at her latest appearance over 1006m at this track, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner. Ideally placed to score. DAZZLING DAME (1) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1106m at Laurel (Dirt) seven-and-a-half weeks ago. Likely improver who should run well again. FOND OF YOU (3) led all the way to score on debut over 1106m at Colonial Downs (Dirt) three weeks ago. Sure to make her presence felt again. SPITFIRE (2) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 3 lengths over 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt) last time out. Solid claims.
