Monmouth Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
ESSENTIALLY FAST (4) brings the best recent claimers’ form after a 2nd at Delaware Park over 1207m, beaten 3L, and looks well placed. WIN WINNIE WIN (6) wasn’t far away when 4th at Tampa Bay Downs over 1106m last start and had a recent 1408m maiden win, so profiles as a key chance back to this trip. FOIL (5) comes off a dominant maiden win at Parx over 1308m and can measure up despite the drop in distance. MY MAN MONEY (1) drops from an Allowance Optional Claiming at Monmouth where he was 6th over 1207m, having won a 1207m maiden earlier in the year.
