EMMA MERMAID (1) rates on recent Laurel Park form, including 2nd over 1106m on 10 Apr and a closing 4th here on 25 Apr, beaten 3.3L. FORTY SEVEN SMOKER (6) was 3rd in that same 25 Apr 1106m race, beaten 2.8L, and draws better. GOTTA BE DA SHOES (5) has prior 2nd over this trip at Laurel and wasn’t far away when 5th here in Nov.

Comes off a 27-day break after a solid 3rd at Laurel Park over 1106m on 25 Apr, beaten 2.8L on firm, improving through the run for Jorge Ruiz with 53kg. Same trip again and draws better after barrier 11 last time. Laurel record 3:0-0-1 at the distance suggests she’s around the mark. Can feature with a similar run.

Back in trip last time at Laurel Park over 1106m on 25 Apr, sat handy then faded to 11th of 12, beaten 9.1L with 51.5kg (FM). Best run was earlier at Meadowlands on 26 Sep over 1006m, finishing 3rd beaten 2.5L (GD) at $10. Blinkers go on and draws barrier 7 for Joanne Shankle with Brittany Scampton taking 51.5kg. Needs to lift on recent Laurel efforts but can improve.

Back in trip from 1609m after a 4th of 6 at Laurel Park on 3 May, beaten 20.5L in Maiden Claiming 54 with 55.5kg for Tais Lyapustina. Prior run 8th of 10 over 1710m on 25 Apr, beaten 8L on firm ground. Two thirds from four tries at this 1106m trip suggest the drop could help.
