Laurel Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Special Weight
COPPER GHOST (2) is a four-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 9 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1710m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Improvement to come and this is his chance to break through. MUNNY PROBLEM (3) turned in a moderate effort on debut last start when seventh at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf) over 1609m, beaten 6 lengths. Can improve sharply and may be worth following up. ROSIE'S WORDS (1) ran a much better race at his second outing last start to finish second over 1609m at Turfway Park after being in the firing line on the turn. Meets some better types this time but he has the talent to test this line-up. ROKTAR (4) debuted four weeks ago when he finished fifth over 1609m at Turfway Park (Synthetic), beaten 16 lengths. Should be thereabouts.
