Laurel Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Ratings Optional Claiming
EMERGENCE (3) settled towards the back of the field last start and made little impact in the straight when eighth, beaten 13 lengths, over this journey at Belmont Park (Dirt). Tackling a more suitable race this time so he can find the winners' list. CRABS N BEER (2) failed to run a strong 1673m last start after a close third over 1509m in stakes class at Delaware Park Turf (Turf) the run prior. Freshened up so worth another chance. GREEN BEANS (5) was in the money two starts back at Colonial Downs Inner Turf but couldn't back it up last time when ninth, beaten 7 lengths, at Colonial Downs Turf (Turf) over 1710m. Has the class to take this out. MUGATU (11) finished a 11 length sixth on turf at Colonial Downs Inner Turf two starts ago. Much better last time though, following up with success on the dirt at Laurel over 1609m two weeks ago. Carlos Eduardo Lopez who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Solid claims on best form.
