Laurel Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden Claiming
TRIATHELON (1) has been in the money two times including last start on February 4 when second over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Has a solid record at this track, finishing in the top-three two times. Nicely placed and expected to go very well. RIO DEL VALLE (3) was well fancied last time out but disappointed in finishing fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 14 lengths after he gave away a big start. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. BOSS LILY (7) made progress last time out, finishing 8 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1710m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. TUG (6) finished 21 lengths from the winner in seventh at his most recent outing over 1408m at this track (Dirt) after he gave away a big start. Among the chances in what looks a nice race for him.

At the latest run didn't finish the race at this track February 4 over 1408m. The race before that settled back and ran on when 8th of 11 at this track on January 9 over 1207m, 8 len behind Gonzalo carrying 56kg at $94.70. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.

Second-up. First start eased back early on 5th of 7 at Penn National on December 12 over 1207m, 18 len behind Miami Kaz carrying 55.5kg at $10.90. Went for a break before returning second last of 9 at this track on February 13 over 1609m, 18 len behind Play It Cool carrying 56kg at $61.90. Unlikely to threaten.

Recent form sound. Comes off a 48 day let-up. Most recently 3rd in a small field at this track on January 10 over 1710m, 8 len behind Pencil Me In carrying 56kg at $8.70. The race before that 4th of 8 at this track on December 19 over 1710m, 5.5 len behind First Officer carrying 53kg at $12.30. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.
