Laurel Park Race 7 - Chick Lang S. Stakes
OBLITERATION (4) maps as the one to beat after a dominant 7.5L win at Oaklawn over 1207m in January and a strong 2nd over 1600m at Riyadh last start. IGNITER (5) is a key chance off his Aqueduct 1207m Stakes win, leading throughout by 1L, and a prior 4.25L score at 1408m. FULMINE (1) brings a perfect 4-from-4 record at 1207m, including a Gulfstream Park Stakes win two back, and drops back in trip after a 3rd at Aqueduct over 1408m. Local specialist TOP MANIPULATOR (7) rates an on-pace danger after winning the Laurel 1207m AOC last start, while SHANE'S WONDER (6) is progressive with three straight wins, the latest a 4.3L Stakes success at Parx over 1207m.
