Monmouth Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
HOP TO IT (1) Zipped home into 2nd last time at Penn National and gets a favourable gate. Edwin Gonzalez is a crucial engagement. Been in the money each attempt this preparation. Sure to be competitive and must include. MOLLY THE GREAT (5) Looked outclassed when 6th last time at Delaware Park. Likely to bounce back and racing over extra ground. Shows good early pace. Big chance. LOVE IN THE HILLS (3) Made some ground when 4th last start here and stepping up in trip. Racing consistently this campaign. Underrated. NINA LEE (6) Picked up some late ground when 4th last start at the track. Has very good finishing speed. Watch market moves.

Rattled home nicely into 2nd beaten by 4 1/4L last time at Penn National and has drawn the rails. Has run into the placings all attempts this campaign. Definite claims for punters.

Started at $18.00 and below par performance when 7th last time at the track but has a good draw. First race for a new trainer. Will be a difficult test.

At $7.50 moved through the field into 4th last start around here and facing a rise in trip. Performing honestly this campaign. Good chance in this.

At $4.00 tailed off to finish 6th last time at Delaware Park. Likely to bounce back and going up in trip. Should be going forward early. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.

At $11.00 made up ground when 4th last start at this venue. Always seems to find the line well. Modest hope.

Couldn't maintain the momentum throughout when 3rd last start here. Minor claims.
