Laurel Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance
BYWAY (4) Fresh after a 50 week spell. Finished hard to win last time around here. Has early speed and positions nicely. Has the ability to figure. CHARMED HOUR (8) Gave them all something to chase to win by over 9L last run at Timonium and rising in distance. Expecting to settle positively. Has to be included. PROFOUND CHANGE (10) Fresh after a break of 35 weeks. Gave nothing else a chance when winning by almost 12L last time at this track. No shock to see a win. BIG EARN (9) Weakened under pressure when 7th last start at Colonial Downs but taking on easier opposition. Jorge Ruiz rates highly aboard. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value .

Right in contention last run at Penn National and has a good draw. Going well this preparation but challenged by more formidable competitors. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Odds of $14.00 and kept chasing when 4th last start at Colonial Downs and good career start. Finishes off strongly. Matched against a stronger field. Could be in the mix.

Resuming after a 50 week spell. Ran home strongly to win last time at this venue. Shows good early pace. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

Started at $16.00 and disappointing outing when 7th last time at Colonial Downs and competing in a more challenging grade. Watch for a sign in the market.

Led all the way to win by a margin of just over 9L last run at Timonium and going over extra ground. Likely to be well placed early. Expecting a strong showing.

At $5.50 faded away to finish 7th last start at Colonial Downs but going down in grade. Jorge Ruiz takes the reins today. Definite claims.

Back from a break of 35 weeks. Shot clear to win by a margin of almost 12L last time here. Should go close.
