Colonial Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
COCO NO LOCO (5) is a five-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 4.5 lengths when fifth over 1609m at Penn National Turf (Turf). Improvement to come and this is his chance to break through. DIVINE SWAGGER (2) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at Laurel (Dirt) over 1609m after being in the firing line all the way. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to figure in the finish. DAN GAMBLE (4) has raced twice. Was third on debut then clocked-in 8 lengths from the winner in sixth last time out over 1609m at Laurel Turf. Will snag back from this draw but has a strong finish. Debut run was good and he looks a great chance to open the account. CHUCKY OUR LAW (3) finished 16 lengths from the winner in fifth at his most recent appearance over 1207m at Penn National (Dirt) after he got a long way back in the run. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation 9th of 11 at Laurel Turf on May 1 over 1106m, 8 len behind Let Fly carrying 53.5kg at $136.20. First up last campaign didn't finish the race at Laurel October 25 over 1207m. Will take a lot from this run but stays under notice.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 3rd in a small field at Laurel on June 19 over 1609m, 9 len behind Vekoma Velocity carrying 57kg at $3.30. The start before that sat on speed throughout when 2nd of 7 at Laurel on May 30 over 1710m, 2.75 len behind River City Runner with 57kg at $2.80. Top chance to claim this against limited opposition.
