Laurel Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming
MOSE SMOKIN (4) finished 7 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1106m at this track, an improvement on his sixth at this track the run before. Has the ability to put the recent run of form behind him. GONZALO (3) recorded a strong maiden win over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time, getting there by 1.5 lengths. Winning rider Paul Luna sticks and he should be in the finish again. MO MISSILE (1) finished fifth, beaten 7 lengths, last time out over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Has a very good record here including two wins from four starts. One of the leading contenders. JOHNNY LIES (5) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 11 lengths away in fourth over 1207m at Mahoning Valley (Dirt) on December 10. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a spell in two starts. Can feature in the finish. Something for the Multiples: RAVI (6)
