Laurel Park Race 7 - Stormy Blues S. Stakes
TAP INTO GRACE (3) Resuming. Good effort to place 3rd beaten by 1L last time at this venue and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Competing at a higher grade. Appears well in this. GIGABIT (7) Went to the front and never looked back to win by just over 6L last run at Horseshoe Indianapolis and putting a tidy record together. Should come to hand quickly. Gets a chance to win. ONLY FOR NOW (2) Finished well when winning last time at Aqueduct and fitter for debut run. Shows very good closing speed. Drawn nicely. Must respect in this event. JUST PHILTORED (6) Passed some rivals in the late stages when 5th last run at Aqueduct but up against a higher level of opposition. Has the ability to take this out.

Strong effort to the line to win last time at Aqueduct and was on debut last time. Always seems to find the line well. Gets a favourable draw. Great chance.

First run back from a break. Strong effort to run into 3rd beaten by 1L last time around here and promising career start. Challenged by more formidable competitors. Can win this.

At $8.00 moved ahead of some to finish 5th last run at Aqueduct but matched against tougher rivals. Good chance at a nice price.

First up after 31 weeks and ran on hard when winning first up last preparation at Colonial Downs. Ismerio Villalobos rates highly aboard and facing weaker opposition. Do not dismiss entirely.

Started at $12.00 and didn't attack the line when 7th last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis but taking on easier opposition. Showing great form since resuming from a break. Has some claims.

Back from a break. Jumped at $18.00 and was well beaten when 6th last time at Tampa Bay Downs and coming back in trip. Shows good early pace. Likely to be an exotics contender.
