Laurel Park Race 14 - Race 14 - Maiden Special Weight
BRUNO (4) sets the bar after debuting 2nd at Laurel Park over 1106m in MSW, beaten 1.3L after leading, and should be suited up to 1207m. HOLY MOLY MITOLE (8) was a solid 2nd here over 1106m in MSW, tracking the speed throughout, and looks the main danger. LOVE YOURSELF (3) brings two Laurel seconds this prep, including 2nd over 1207m last time, and stays in the mix. BALLINACLASH (7) has multiple MSW seconds at Laurel and drops back to sprint trip, which can help.
