Monmouth Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming

FINAL JOKE (10) brings the sharpest recent form, winning last start at Monmouth over 1674m by 0.5L after a close second the run prior, and looks well placed. IMPERIAL SPY (8) can bounce back from a tough Parx run; prior efforts included a decisive 3.75L win over 1308m and narrow seconds at 1609–1710m. RED SKY MORNING (1) steps up off a Tampa Bay maiden win over 1609m and a prior 2nd at 1710m, and draws well. GAELICHEARTOFGOLD (6) mixes trips but has a Laurel win and recent 1207m placing to suggest competitiveness up in distance.
