Laurel Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Claiming
FORTY SEVEN SMOKER (6) finished third, beaten 2.75 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track (Turf). Has the ability to find winning ways. NIECEY (8) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.75 lengths from the winner in second over 1408m at Tampa Bay Downs after being prominent at the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. EMMA MERMAID (1) is a six-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth at her latest appearance over 1106m at this track (Turf). Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. GOTTA BE DA SHOES (5) is back after a break of six-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fifth over 1106m at this track (Turf). Nicely placed and can figure in the finish.

The run before that held ground to the line 2nd of 8 at Laurel on April 10 over 1106m, 1.5 len behind Gripen carrying 56kg at $3.80. Excellent winning chance with the help of an inside draw.
