Laurel Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Mdn Claiming
GALLANT LAD (4) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1673m at Delaware Park (Dirt) after being in contention on the corner. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. CHALK TALK (7) ran below expectations last time at Delaware Park (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 35 lengths starting at $9. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. AGENDUM (1) is a consistent performer with two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Produced another good performance last time out when second over 1609m at Delaware Park Turf (Turf) after he was in the firing line all the way. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. NAPISONMYAGENDA (6) finished 5 lengths away in fourth at his last appearance over 1609m at Laurel (Dirt) on October 4. Solid top-three chance on his best figures.

Second run back. Comes off a 36-day let-up. First-up after seven months held ground to the line 3rd of 7 at Delaware Park on September 17 over 1673m, 18 len behind Skyrayleigh carrying 56kg at $3.20.
