Laurel Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Ratings Optional Claiming

PAY BILLY (1) finished fifth over 1811m at Aqueduct (Dirt) at his most recent appearance on May 1. Sure to make his presence felt. OTAGO (7) last appeared six weeks ago over 1811m at Colonial Downs Turf when he finished eighth. This is his first run for the Lacey Gaudet stable. Worth serious consideration. BRIGHTY (5) proved too strong two runs ago at Penn National. Couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1710m at Penn National, beaten 9 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. NEXT LEVEL (2) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 6 lengths away in sixth over 1710m at Colonial Downs Turf. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Entire back from a spell of five months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last preparation when last in a small field at Aqueduct May 1 over 1811m, 16 len behind Phileas Fogg carrying 56kg at $9.14. Previously first up; sixth of 9 at this track in the LR November 29 over 1408m, 4 len behind Zero Blitz with 56kg at $5.20. This is an ideal race to kick off. Top hope.

At the latest run ran second last of 8 at this track on September 11 over 1609m, 18 len behind Adero with 51kg at $41.90. The race before that ran last in a small field at Colonial Downs on August 22 over 1408m, 17 len behind Zero Blitz carrying 54.5kg at $23.60. Likely to run around at long odds and deservedly so.
