Laurel Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
NATTIE'S BOSS (5) finished 4 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being in the firing line on the turn over 1106m at this track, an improvement on her seventh at Colonial Downs the run before. Tackling a more suitable race this time so she is one of the main contenders. HURRAH (4) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1207m at Laurel (Dirt), finishing second and beaten 1.3 lengths. Leading player with plenty of improvement in store. LIGHT DE NIGHT (1) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of six-and-a-half months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 1106m at this track (Turf). Rates highly on best figures and should be right in this. DAENERYS (7) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Brittany Russell. By Medaglia D'oro from Lucky Irish. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.

Last start ran last of 9 at Laurel on April 26 over 1106m, 30 len behind Cupid's Choice carrying 56kg at $7.20. The run before that 3rd in a small field at Turfway Park on March 20 over 1308m, 6 len behind Loving Mischief carrying 54.5kg at $2.22. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.

At debut, 2nd in a small field at Laurel on April 4 over 1207m, 1.3 len behind Panchita carrying 56kg at $7.70. Encouraging signs on debut and another big run is likely.

First-starter by Medaglia D'oro out of Lucky Irish. Tough to line up. Betting the best pointer.
