Emerald Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Claiming
BABY WAYLON (3) lifted strongly to score two back then was prominent in the run last time before finishing fourth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Has a high cruising speed. Best figures should see him run well. ELDER MACK (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. This doesn't look as hard so he can make amends. RHODIUM RUNNER (5) turned in a fine effort to win by a nose at today's course and distance when resuming from a layoff last time out. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. COUNTERACT (4) turned in a nice run when fresh from a spell two starts back at this track then missed the placings last time when 5.5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Open to improvement so he can make amends.

At the latest run 4th in a small field at this track on May 10 over 1609m, 2.5 len behind Afjan with 56.5kg at $2.36. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a 0.3 len at Turf Paradise Turf April 21 over 1609m defeating Now Then with 56kg at $1.40. Can build on that encouraging effort last start.
