Laurel Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
MAKING DAISYS (5) brings upside after breaking her maiden at Colonial Downs over 1609m by 0.1L when sitting handy, and looks suited up in this AOC. DIAMOND N DRESS (2) is a key chance back from a Stakes 80 miss after leading and fading, having previously won two straight at Laurel including an AOC over 1710m. MOMAXIE (6) rates well off a dominant Laurel AOC win over 1609m two back and can improve returning to a route. NOTHINGLESSWILLDO (3) won by 11.8L in maiden company at Laurel two runs ago and wasn’t far away in an Allowance last time.
