Laurel Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Special Weight

RIO GRANDE (2) stuck on well to finish second last start over 1710m at this track (Turf), beaten 0.1 lengths when fresh from a spell as favourite. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. CLARK'S CORNER (8) has switched yards since finishing fourth six weeks ago over 1609m at Kentucky. Likely to play a major role. EXECUTIVE (7) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found a couple better over 1710m at this track, beaten only 0.8 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. IRISH NUNSENSE (1) finished 4.5 lengths away in sixth at his last appearance over 1710m at this track (Turf) on September 20. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment.
