Laurel Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Claiming
COUNTRY BUMPKIN (5) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when fifth in a 1106m contest at Laurel Turf four weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Faces an easier assignment so he will be hard to beat. FAROOQ (3) has been in the money three times including first-up last start on May 23 when second over 1106m at Delaware Park (Dirt). Has recorded two top-three finishes from five runs at this venue. A maiden win looks imminent. SILVER SABER (1) is a three-start maiden who finished ninth at his most recent outing over 1710m at Laurel Turf (Turf) after he got a long way back in the run. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. SWEET SPY (2) returns after three months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1207m at Colonial Downs (Dirt). Rates highly on best form and a bright return wouldn't surprise.
