Laurel Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight
RAISIN WEEKEND (4) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1207m at Laurel (Dirt). Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. GUM (6) resumes from a spell of 11 months. Could only manage to finish fifth at the latest run over 1710m at Delaware Park Turf (Turf). Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. SOTA SUMMERS (7) stepped out for her debut over 1609m at Aqueduct Turf (Turf) back on May 2 2025 and finished fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths. Can improve sharply. AMERICAN TAPIT (1) resumes from a spell of ten weeks. Has filled a minor placing at both first-up runs. Opened last prep with a second over 1207m at Turfway Park. Worth including.

Resumes after a break of ten weeks and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last campaign fourth of 10 at Turfway Park March 5 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Blue Flame Six carrying 54.5kg at $5.67. First up last campaign second of 11 at Turfway Park January 15 over 1207m, 1.3 len behind American Summer with 54.5kg at $13.22. Not without claims.
