Fair Grounds Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
CALIFORNIA SWAG (2) First run back from a break. Kicked clear when winning by just over 6L last run at Delta Downs and can find a nice position from the draw. Worth strong consideration. URBAN RULER (1) Picked up late to win last run here and drawn the rails. Jr Marcelino Pedroza and Chris M Block command respect as a team. Key player. FAKE SMART (6) Tailed off to finish 8th last start around here. Expecting improvement and competing at a lower level of competition. Has good finishing speed. Back in trip. Worth consideration. RUN OF THE HOUSE (5) First up from a break of 52 weeks and stormed home to win first up last preparation at Aqueduct. Change in trainer but dropping in distance. Will be there at the finish.

Finished with purpose when winning last run at the track and will appreciate a good barrier. Jockey Jr Marcelino Pedroza and trainer Chris M Block are a formidable team. Should go very close.

Fresh from a break. Won with a leg in the air by more than 6L last run at Delta Downs and gets a favourable gate. Should race on the speed. Can win.

Resuming after a spell. Appeared lacklustre when 7th last start here and competing in a higher grade. Needs too much luck.

Kept running on late when 2nd last start here and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Facing a stronger grade. Could not recommend in this.

First up from a break of 52 weeks and reeled them in when winning first up last preparation at Aqueduct. Coming to a new trainer but coming back in distance. Good value.

Nice effort to run into 3rd last run at this track and stepping down to a lower level. Going well this preparation. Hard to take.
