Laurel Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Claiming
READY AS EVER (4) First run back from a 75 week break. Disappointing effort when 6th last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis but racing over a longer distance. Respect in this event. ITS ALL GRAVY (8) Faded away to finish 6th last run at this venue. Recent form of the stable is strong. Gets a chance to win. RIVER CITY RUNNER (10) Zipped home into 3rd beaten by 6L last start at this track. Goes close. BOLD STATEMENT (5) Fresh after a break of 26 weeks. Ran 5th last time at this track. Should come to hand quickly. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race.

Back after break of 42 weeks. Jumped at $6.00 and mediocre performance when 7th last time at this track but having second race start. Has drawn the rails. Prefer to watch.

Was $28.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 5th last run at the track but having second race start. Has shown early pace in races to date. Hard to warm to at present.

First up after a break of 32 weeks. Started $9.50 and weakened to finish 7th last start around here but fitter for debut run. First start for a new trainer. Needs to improve.

First up from a break of 75 weeks. Odds of $5.00 and clearly outclassed when 6th last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis but racing over more ground. Nice chance at a very tempting price.

Was $5.50 and couldn't stay in touch when 6th last run around here. Have to respect the recent Kieron Magee form. Good chance of taking this out.

Jumped at $36.00 and was well beaten when 6th last time at the track but facing a rise in trip. Too much luck needed to come into contention.

At $36.00 tailed off to finish 7th last start at Colonial Downs. Has the speed to overcome the wide draw. Can't leave out of your calculations.
